My Brethren: WELCOME It is my pleasure to welcome each and every member to this the 140th communication of our Grand Lodge. Members come from every part of our province. Many of you have travelled great distances to be with us once more, to work together and learn from each other, and share in the fellowship of our meeting. A special welcome to all of our distinguished guests from the provinces and from our neighbouring states. Your presence amongst us adds lustre to our gathering. May your visit be one of profit and pleasure, and if you enjoy your stay as much as Ellen-Orr and I enjoyed our visit with you and the pleasure of your company, we will be delighted. NECROLOGY Over the years we have been privileged to share our Masonic journey with some of the brethren who have now laid down their working tools, and have been called to their reward. Familiar names who gave of themselves and made us better for having known them. Their search for fulfilment touched all of us who had the honour of knowing them. Edward James Langley R.W. Bro. Edward J. Langley, P.D.D.G.M. Toronto "A" 1 District 1955, served as a member of the Board of General Purposes from 1964 to 1972. He was initiated, passed and raised in Kilwinning Lodge No. 565, having served as Worshipful Master in 1950. Bro. Langley was also a member of several other lodges: River Park No. 356, Stanley No. 426, Connaught No. 501, Mount Sinai No. 522, Mississauga No. 524, Maple Leaf No. 600, Lake Shore No. 645 and Flower City No. 689. Bro. Langley was one of the founding fathers of the Eat and Argue Club where he gave so freely of his time and talents, even to the day of his sudden passing. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 21 His warm, friendly dispostion and radiant personality will long be remembered by his many Masonic friends. Douglas Henderson Bliss R.W. Bro. Douglas H. Bliss, P.G.S.W. (Hon 1990), was initiated, passed and raised in the Lodge of Strict Observance No. 27, where he served as Worshipful Master in 1974, and later served as Secretary for many years. Bro. Bliss was a long time employee in the Grand Lodge office, serving as Chief Clerk until his retirement in 1990. Unfortunately, his retirement years were not blessed with good health. His many contributions to the Craft shall not soon be forgotten. We also salute the memory of V.W. Bro. Phillip J. Curran, Grand Steward, and the more than seventy Past Grand Lodge Officers and three William Mercer Wilson Medal Holders listed herein. "/ heard a voice from heaven saying unto me: Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord; even so sayeth the Spirit, for they rest from their labours. " PAST RANK Pursuant to Section 73 of the Constitution of Grand Lodge, that in recognition of outstanding services rendered to this Grand Lodge, I hereby recommend that the rank of Past Grand Senior Warden be awarded to: V.W. Bro. J. Lloyd Mellor, Georgina Lodge No. 343, Toronto District 3 V.W. Bro. Robert N. Wilson, King Hiram Lodge No. 566, Toronto District 1 PAST GRAND MASTERS Having had the opportunity to benefit from three separate meetings with our Past Grand Masters, and receiving their individual counsel and support on numerous other occasions during the year, I am deeply grateful to each and every one of them. Their collective wisdom has proven to be an invaluable asset to this incumbent. 22 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION CUSTODIAN M.W. Bro. N. Richard Richards has served as the Custodian of the Work since 1984, and has indicated that he will be retiring from office at the end of this communication. He has given unstintingly of his time and talent in the performance of the duties of the office. Each year he has provided instruction and guidance to succeeding District Deputy Grand Masters, and having had the opportunity to work closely with our distinguished brother over the last four years, I add my personal commendation to the plaudits of all who say, well done, Most Worshipful Sir! DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS The District Deputy Grand Masters are an essential link in the communi- cations chain between Grand Lodge and the constituent lodges. The present District Deputies have filled this vital role extremely well, performing all of their duties and providing leadership in the districts in an exemplary manner. This year we are including selections of their reports on the state of Masonry in the forty-six districts in the annual Proceedings. This has not been done for a number of years and we recommend that this practice be reinstated, and an effort be made to consolidate the information from the years when this practice was not followed. We must endeavour to preserve our historical records for posterity. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT The privilege of serving in this office is shared by only a few. As the 66th Grand Master, I offer my thanks to all of those who assisted in my Masonic journey; my dad, Bro. Charles Drew who sponsored me, my lodge Georgina No. 343 G.R.C. who raised me and nurtured my Masonic growth, my family who assisted and encouraged me at every step along the way, and most of all to Ellen-Orr who shared the many extra burdens associated with the office, cheerfully and efficiently. Thank you so much! BOARD OF GENERAL PURPOSES Under the energetic leadership of the President, R.W. Bro. Durward I. Greenwood, our Board has continued to develop ideas, pursue recommend- ations and provide assistance and guidance to the Districts, Lodges and Grand Lodge through the various standing and special committees. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 23 The Management Committee has now completed the fourth year of operation, meeting on a regular basis during the year and providing informed and timely advice for the decision making and policy formulation functions of the Board. All of the members of the Board are to be commended for the enormous amount of time and effort expended to perform their duties. A cursory glance at the reports in the Proceedings will provide an insight into the many and varied activities of the committees of the Board. We must also thank those brethren who, although they were not members of the Board, worked tirelessly on the committees and were responsible for the many successful achievements. This year five members of the Board have chosen to retire from service in that capacity: R. W. Bro. H. Allan Leal of Tweed, Honorary Member 1991 to 1995. R.W. Bro. Donald R. Thornton of Kingston, appointed in 1989, 1991 and 1993. R.W. Bro. Andrew R. Burgess of Kincardine, appointed in 1991, elected in 1993. R.W. Bro. Douglas W. Townsend of Walsingham, appointed in 1991 and 1993. V.W. Bro. Norman G. McCarthy of Hamilton, appointed in 1991 and 1993. They have each given unstintingly of their time and talent for the benefit of our Craft. We salute them for their many contributions, and we are assured that their commitment to our Order will manifest itself in other directions. APPOINTMENTS V.W. Bro. James Currie was appointed as a Grand Steward in October, 1994, and I request the approval of Grand Lodge for this appointment. ANNIVERSARIES It has been my pleasure to share in many anniversary celebrations. It is always encouraging to see the way that such an occasion can be beneficial to the well being of the lodge, resulting in profit and pleasure for the members. Many lodges have planned events well in advance, including family members and involving members of the community whenever possible. 24 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION RECOMMENDATIONS The three-year term as Honourary Members of the Board of General Purposes has come to an end for the following five brethren: R.W. Bro. Robert A. Barnett R.W. Bro. James T. Cassie R.W. Bro. H. Allan Leal R.W. Bro. Wallace E. McLeod R.W. Bro. Robert T. Runciman Each and every one of whom has given unstintingly of his time and talent, providing access to a wealth of expertise and experience to our Grand Lodge. R.W. Bro. H. Allan Leal has indicated that he does not wish to be reappointed an honourary member of the Board. I am delighted to recom- mend that the remaining four be appointed for a further term of three years, thanking them for past service to our beloved Craft. Pursuant to Section 131(e), I recommend the appointment of R.W. Bro. Ronald K. Campbell, Nepean, for a term of three years as an honourary member of the Board of General Purposes. MASONIC FOUNDATION President T. John Arthur and the directors of the Masonic Foundation of Ontario have lead our Foundation through another year of growth, and now established in the Memorial Building in Hamilton are poised to meet the challenges of the years that lie ahead. The changes to the bylaws that were passed at the annual meeting will extend the base from which the directors are chosen, facilitating a more broadly based representation from the membership. WILLIAM MERCER WILSON AWARD During the past year five brethren have joined the illustrious recipients of this prestigious award. We delight in offering our congratulations on their preferment: Bro. Alec R. Rae, Antiquity Lodge No. 571, Toronto Bro. Ralph S. Henderson, Maitland Lodge No. 33, Goderich Bro. Lyndon Jones, Ancient St. John's No. 3, Kingston Bro. Donald N. Irvine, St. John's Lodge No. 104, Norwich Bro. Russell O. Dillabough, Atomic Lodge No. 686, Deep River TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 25 LONG SERVICE PINS Many long service pins were earned and presented during the past year and we congratulate all of the recipients. This year, in response to many requests over the years, we have developed a 25 year Past Master's pin for presentation to those of our brethren who have served the Craft as Past Masters for a quarter of a century. It is important to remember that pins for long service must be requested by the LODGE. Too often this is missed, and we would suggest that every lodge establish a mechanism to ensure that the request is made in ample time for presentation. DEPUTY GRAND MASTER During my term of office it has been my distinct pleasure to work closely with our Deputy Grand Master, R.W. Bro. Durward I. Greenwood, who has been a constant source of support to your Grand Master, meeting, as we have, on a regular weekly basis. His performance as the President of the Board of General Purposes and as Chairman of the Management Committee of the Board leaves no doubt in my mind that he is well prepared to lead this Grand Lodge for the ensuing two years, and we will all be proud to follow his leadership. GRAND OFFICERS Once again our Grand Lodge has been well served by the dedicated brethren who were elected and appointed to serve in the past year. The Grand Director of Ceremonies, V.W. Bro. David D. Doughty was unable to serve due to continuing health problems, and this necessitated that V.W. Bro. Thomas P. Hansen be appointed to fill the office once more. His ready acceptance of this responsibility and his dedication to service is deeply appreciated The Grand Chaplain, R.W. Bro. David Wilkinson brought his unique blend of humour and dignity to the office, officiating at many Divine Services and special events. Once again we were fortunate to have the immensely talented Mason, R.W. Bro. Wallace E. MacLeod serve in the capacity of Grand Historian. The Grand Wardens, R.W. Bro. William C. Thompson and R.W. Bro. 26 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Thomas S. Crowley, performed their duties in an outstanding manner, and the Grand Registrar, R.W. Bro. Philip R. Borland, represented the Grand Master on the visit to Heritage Lodge No. 730 G.R.C. The Grand Treasurer, R.W. Bro. T. Richard Davies, who was appointed to succeed M.W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland in 1993, was elected by the brethren in 1994, bringing to that office a wealth of experience from the private sector, and fulfilling his duties with distinction. M.W. Bro. Robert E. Davies has once again served our Grand Lodge as Grand Secretary in an exemplary manner. We are so fortunate to have his wise counsel and vast experience available to us. We extend our personal thanks for all of his efforts. GRAND REPRESENTATIVES I was pleased to accept the recommendations of the Grand Masters involved, and to confirm the following brethren as our Grand Repre- sentatives near the Grand Lodges of: Italy (Gr Orient) - Bro. Antonio Bencaster Kentucky - Bro. Donald R. Stump Netherlands - Bro. D. C. J. van Peype Norway - Bro. Frank Hauan Oklahoma - Bro. Ronald E. Johnson Venezuela - W. Bro. Carlos C. Bratt Castillo Virginia - Bro. Charles B. Taylor I was pleased to recommend to the Grand Masters involved, the following brethren for their consideration for appointment as Grand Rep- resentatives near our Grand Lodge: New South Wales - R.W. Bro. T. Richard Davies North Dakota - R.W. Bro. Robert J. McKibbon Ecuador - R.W. Bro. Ralph Green Denmark - V.W. Bro. Thomas P. Hansen Nova Scotia - R.W. Bro. Frank G. Dunn Luxembourg - R.W. Bro. Denis Langridge Oklahoma - R.W. Bro. Terence Shand York-Mexico - R.W. Bro. Ronald K. Campbell COMMENDATIONS Certificates of commendation for outstanding service were awarded to the following brethren: TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 27 Bro. Philippe A. M. Bernard, The Builders Lodge No. 177, Ottawa Bro. Stanley W. McNall, Mother Lodge Amity No. 32, Dunnville V.W. Bro. Jack F. Higgins, King Solomon's Lodge No. 378, London Bro. Wallace D. Hall, Russell Lodge No. 479, Russell W. Bro. Evan H. Stevenson, Mercer Lodge No. 347, Fergus Bro. Clifford H. Beaumont, Nickel Lodge No. 427, Sudbury W. Bro. Arthur A. Parrott, Runnymede Lodge No. 619, Toronto Bro. John Ross Matheson, True Britons Lodge No. 14, Perth R.W. Bro. Edsel Steen, Pnyx Lodge No. 312, Wallaceburg R.W. Bro. Kenneth L. Schweitzer, Hillcrest Lodge No. 594, Hamilton W. Bro. Peter M. Floyd, Queen's Lodge No. 578, Kingston V.W. Bro. A. E. Harrington, Goodwood Lodge No. 159, Richmond R.W. Bro. Terry A McLean, Sunnylea Lodge No. 664, Etobicoke Bro. Sheldon M. Kofsky, Mosaic Lodge No. 559, Richmond Hill CONFERENCES The Conference of Grand Masters of North America was held in February, 1995, in Fargo, North Dakota. Conferences of this nature, providing the opportunity to meet and share ideas with our counterparts from other jurisdictions, have been of immense value to your Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master, as we indicated in the address last year, and provide the ideas for many programmes. One such was the Friend to Friend programme, and I am delighted to be able to thank our good friend, the Grand Master of Pennsylvania, R.W. Bro. George Hohenshildt for leading the way in this marvellous programme. The Conference of Canadian Grand and District Grand Lodges was held in March, 1995, in Winnipeg, Manitoba — attended by Grand Masters, Deputy Grand Masters and Grand Secretaries from every province. This annual conference provides an unique opportunity for visitation on a national scale, and for interaction between Grand Lodges. We were able to learn of the many activities of our sister jurisdictions. We reviewed our Friend to Friend programme and offered to make the video and brochures available to the other Grand Lodges for their use if so desired. I am delighted to be able to inform you that at the conclusion of the Conference our Deputy Grand Master, R.W. Bro. Durward I. Greenwood, 28 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION was elected as President of the 1996 Conference. We congratulate him on the honour that he brings to our Grand Lodge. CONGRATULATIONS Congratulations are certainly in order for M.W. Bro. Robert E. Davies on his election as the President of the Conference of Grand Secretaries of North America at their annual meeting in Fargo, North Dakota. The brethren have chosen wisely and we congratulate our Grand Secretary on his preferment. SECRETARIES The amount of work that is done by the Lodge Secretary is usually only fully realized in his absence and, indeed, the efficient operation of the lodge is dependent to a large extent on the devotion and dedication of the secretary. Many secretaries serve for a number of years, providing a degree of continuity to our officer line. We recommend that consideration be given to provding a mark of recognition for long service - perhaps seven years - in this vital office. GRAND CHAPTER R.A.M. Due to another commitment, I was unable to accept the gracious invitation of Most Excellent Companion Alan F. Walker to attend the 137th Annual Communication of the Grand Chapter, Royal Arch Masons of Canada in the Province of Ontario, held in Windsor, in April, 1995. I was pleased that our Deputy Grand Master was able to attend in my stead, and we extend our thanks to the Grand First Principal and all the Companions of Grand Chapter for the warm welcome and gracious hospitality extended to R.W. Bro. Durward Greenwood and Doris. It was a privilege to be appointed as an honourary member of the Executive Committee of Grand Chapter and thanks are again extended to the Grand First Principal for this honour. SUPREME COUNCIL A. & A.S.R. The close association of our Grand Lodge with the Scottish Rite was particularly evident this year by the support and encouragement given to our Friend to Friend programme. SHRINE The 121st Imperial Shrine session was held in July, 1995, in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Shriners of Ontario were well represented at this session. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 29 Imperial Potentate Burton E. Ravellette has carried the message of Masonic Unity to every Temple in North America whenever he has had the oppor- tunity, and our congratulations are extended to this dedicated Mason. To improve cooperation and understanding between the Masons in our jurisdiction, regular meetings have been held of the Ontario Masonic Strategy Committee, which is composed of representatives of the three Shrine Temples, Grand Chapter, Scottish Rite and Grand Lodge, working together to address our joint concerns regarding membership. I commend all of the Masons involved in this joint effort. Useful progress is being made and this will continue as we address our challenges in a concerted manner. SQUARE AND COMPASSES Last year we reported on the successful defence of the commercial use of our symbol, and the ongoing action to register the square and compasses with the cooperation of the Masonic Foundation of Ontario and the other Canadian Grand Lodges. It is my pleasure to report that this initiative has been concluded and our gratitude is now expressed to The Masonic Foundation for their ready assistance, and to the other Canadian Grand Lodges, in particular the Grand Lodge of Quebec, the Grand Lodge of Manitoba, the Grand Lodge of Alberta and the District Grand Lodge of Newfoundland (Scottish Constitution), for their financial contribution to this endeavour, and last, but by no means least, to M.W. Bro. Norman E. Byrne who, with great expertise and no little effort, shepherded this effort to a successful conclusion. We are now in a position to protect our emblem from commercial exploitation. DEDICATIONS During the past year we had the opportunity to join with two lodges to dedicate new facilities: Strong Lodge No. 423, in Sundridge, on May 6, 1995 Hillcrest Lodge No. 594, in Hamilton, on May 27, 1995 We take pleasure in congratulating the brethren of these two lodges as they completed their dream to establish a new Masonic home, and wish for all of the members many years of happiness in their new surroundings. 30 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION RECEPTIONS It was a pleasure to attend the many receptions which were hosted by the districts across the jurisdiction, and to be received with such generous hospitality. Many districts included an invitation to our ladies, which Ellen- Orr was delighted to accept. We will be forever grateful for the opportunity to meet so many members at these events. At many of them we met briefly with the Worshipful Masters and Wardens before the reception, who were invited to introduce their new members. This proved so successful that one district had the names of the new members of each lodge printed on the placemats on each table. BICENTENNIALS The Ancient St. John's Lodge No. 3 G.R.C. celebrated two hundred years of Masonry in August, 1994, with a gala celebration in Kingston. The Barton Lodge No. 6 G.R.C. is celebrating this momentous anniversary in 1995. Both lodges chose to mark this historic benchmark in their history with year long celebrations, involving their families and the communities to which they have made such a contribution over two centuries. CENTENNIALS We extend our congratulations to the lodges who are nearing their 100th Anniversary and wish them well as they embark on their second century: Burns Lodge No. 436 G.R.C, Hepworth, as of September 11, 1995. Harmony Lodge No. 438 G.R.C, Thornhill, as of October 5, 1995. Alexandria Lodge No. 439 G.R.C, Alexandria, as of April 21, 1996. Arcadia Lodge No. 440 G.R.C, Minden, as of July 11, 1996. Dyment Lodge No. 442 G.R.C, Thessalon, as of January 7, 1997. They are hereby given permission to wear centennial gold thereafter. CORNERSTONE The cornerstone of the William Mercer Wilson Centre in London was laid on October 29, 1994, with full Masonic ceremony, and the official opening took place on April 1, 1995. All Masons can be proud of the leadership and initiative of our members from the London area who have fulfilled this dream. They still are in need of funds to implement this worthwhile project in its entirety. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 31 DAYLIGHT LODGE Border Cities Lodge No. 554 G.R.C. in Windsor celebrated their 75th Anniversary in 1995 by becoming a Daylight Lodge, adding to the growing number of lodges meeting in the daylight hours. It was my pleasure to join the brethren for their first meeting and see the beautifully restored lodge room filled to capacity. We wish them well as they embark on this new chapter in their history. The other Daylight Lodges are: Anniversary Lodge No. 733 G.R.C, in Brampton London Daylight Lodge No. 735 G.R.C, in London Dufferin Lodge No. 570 G.R.C, in Toronto Limestone Daylight No. 739 G.R.C, in Harrowsmith Ozias Lodge No. 508 G.R.C, in Brantford Luxor Daylight Lodge No. 741 G.R.C, in Ottawa Centennial Daylight Lodge No. 679 G.R.C, in Hamilton FUND RAISING The address label and calendar projects continued to receive outstanding support from the brethren, providing funding for much needed programmes detailed in the various reports, including: * The Friend to Friend video and brochures. * The Spring and Fall issue of the Ontario Mason, mailed to every member. * The new Information Booth. * The Regional Workshops (which will continue through 1996). * Participation in the Annual International Plowing Match. * The Grand Lodge Museum and Library. CALENDAR The Grand Lodge Calendar was produced for the second year in 1995, featuring some superb photographs from many lodges. Our gratitude is extended to all those who submitted photographs, and in particular to V. W. Bro. George Ross of Richardson Lodge No. 136 in Stouffville and Bro. Michael Schram of Campbell Lodge No. 603 in Campbellville for their professional assistance. DONATIONS During the past year our Grand Lodge received some special gifts: The magnificent organ, which is being used today, was donated by Mrs. Irene 32 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Jack in memory of her late husband, Bro. Robert K. Jack of Unity Lodge No. 710, Brampton; and a 20' x 40' exhibit tent was donated by R.W. Bro. Ted Hensler of Moravian Lodge No. 431, Cargill. We are most appreciative of the generosity of the donors, and they can be assured that both of these valuable items will be most useful to our Grand Lodge. There have also been some sizeable financial contributions to our benevolence fund, which are thankfully received and will be faithfully applied. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT It is with a great sense of pride that we extend congratulations to all of the lodges who were involved in so many community activities, providing help to those in need in a wide variety of ways; sponsoring youth groups and sports teams, providing bursaries and funding scholarships, wheelchairs and prosthetics, transportation assistance, guide dog training, highway cleanup, summer camps, family shelters, hospital equipment, preschool breakfasts, walkathons, garage sales, disaster assistance, meals on wheels, blood donor clinics and countless other helpful endeavours, fulfilling the honour bound duty of a Mason to help those in need. We salute all of your splendid work in this vital area. ANTHEM In the Address in July, 1994, Worshipful Masters were encouraged to consider the singing of "O Canada" at an appropriate lime at all meetings. Your Grand Master has been absolutely delighted at the positive response to this suggestion, and the many favourable comments received on this addition to our regular agenda. BANQUET FACILITIES A major part of our lodge evening takes place in our banquet room at the festive board, particularly for our visitors, families and friends. We must endeavour to provide an atmosphere of which we can be proud. Hospitality is a Masonic landmark and the comfort of all in attendance is paramount. A little time and effort spent in improving our banquet rooms would be a sound investment. Many lodges make the banquet hour a nonsmoking event as a courtesy to those who are affected by second hand smoke. This is surely worthy of consideration by all lodges. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 33 BLACK CREEK PIONEER VILLAGE The restored Pre-Confederation lodge room in Black Creek Pioneer Village, which is located on the outskirts of Metropolitan Toronto, was opened in 1984, under the auspices of the Heritage Lodge No. 730 G.R.C. and this year celebrated the tenth year of operation. The lodge room is open for visitors daily from March through December each year, and has been staffed by an enthusiastic group of volunteer interpreters, who meet and greet the thousands of visitors who explore the village each year. We commend all those who have been, and those who continue to be involved in this worthy activity. The brethren in the London area, inspired by this example, are investi- gating the possibility of a similar project in their area. We wish them well in their endeavours. FRIEND TO FRIEND The Friend to Friend Programme, a key component in our effort to improve the quality of our membership, was adapted from the Pennsylvania programme, and was launched in September, 1994. The focus of the pro- gramme was to address three key elements: * to motivate the interest of current active members. * to rejuvenate the interest of our members who are not attending lodge. * to attract the interest and provide information to potential quality candidates. The District Deputy Grand Masters delivered the programme package to all 648 lodges in the month of October. The kit contained a lodge copy of the specially produced video "Friend to Friend - Freemasonry in Ontario," a sufficient number of the brochures to be given to the members, and the programme manual. The success of this type of programme ultimately depends on how it is used; however, early results from those lodges who have initiated the pro- gramme have been absolutely outstanding. An important and positive benefit of the programme is the provision of information on our Order, for those who will never become Masons and to our families, friends, relatives and the general public, who deserve to be better informed of our aims and objectives. 34 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION It is interesting to note the wide variety of methods that Worshipful Masters have used to expose the video to an expanded audience: Family Nights and Open Houses; by the Mentors and the Committee of Inquiry; to Community, Church and Concordant Groups; to our shut-in and senior members; to neighbours and co-workers; to relatives and family members; local fairs and community television — in short, a wide variety of uses, limited only by your imagination and the availability of a V.C.R. INFORMATION BOOTHS The successful use of information booths has prompted the purchase of a top quality booth, which will be available for use by lodges on a reser- vation basis. Take the time during the Grand Lodge Communication to visit the booth in the foyer outside the Canadian Room, if you wish more infor- mation. INSTALLATION CEREMONY The Installation Ceremony was revised in July, 1994, by the Ritual Committee after being under review over a two year period, and is now the only ceremony to be used. FLAG Our flag is a constant source of pride and inspiration to us and our sense of loyalty and patriotism is admirably expressed in the presentation by the R.C.M.P. degree team: "/ present our flag, our symbol of Unity and of Sovereignty, Between bars of red and on a field of white, It blazons forth in its full Autumnal glory, The Canadian Maple Leaf, Whose points represent the Provinces and Territories, which comprise our great Dominion; To Freemasons; the red symbolizes the dauntless courage of our forefathers, which we strive to emulate, the white, that blameless purity of life and conduct, to which we aspire, and the points, the eleven knightly virtues, of which Patriotism is the greatest, and to which we are ever dedicated, and finally it inspires in us a reverence to Him, to Whom we fervently pray: God Save the Queen and Heaven Bless the Maple Leaf Forever." It is said that our feelings of patriotism are never higher than when we are far from home. This was particularly evident to your Grand Master on the many visits to Grand Lodges in the United States, where, without TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 35 exception, we were received with the utmost grace and courtesy. One such reception was especially moving in the Grand Lodge of Ohio, where the Grand Master, M.W. Bro. Thomas Zahler, had memorized the above presentation, which he gave when our flag was presented, much to the amazement and delight of your Grand Master. Thirty years ago Bro. John Ross Matheson chaired the Parliamentary Committee which gave us our flag. Indeed, Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson said: "He was the man who had more to do with it than any other." Judge Matheson concludes his superb book "Canada's Flag" with the following paragraph: "May the maple leaf, our emblem dear, continue to fly for so long as the wind shall blow. May it be seen by all those on this spaceship, Earth, as a signal from a kindly, caring considerate people. For is it not written that the leaves of the tree were for the healing of nations?" APPLICATION FORMS A standard application form was approved in 1994, suitable to be imprinted on the lodge letterhead. This is the only form to be used by all lodges. COMPUTERS The ever increasing number of lodges who have computerized their records is testimony to the progressive thinking of their members. Lodges have reduced expenditures and improved the quality of communications by producing the monthly summons, and in many cases newsletters, financial statements, special announcements, dues notices and many other items on the lodge computer equipment. DEGREE TEAMS We are fortunate to have so many degree teams providing a wide diversity of experience and talent for the benefit of the Craft: Past Masters and Wardens, Native Canadians, the R.C.M.P., O.P.P. and many Regional Police teams, Armed Forces, Firefighters. Educators, Railroaders, Tele- phone, Transit and Airline employees, Mariners, Historians, Pharmacists, Hunters, Funeral Directors, Scottish, Irish, Welsh, Caribbean, Chapter, Scottish Rite and Shriners and so many others with vocational and rec- reational connections, each working together to provide very special nights for the benefit of the brethren. 36 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION DISPENSATIONS A number of dispensations were issued during the year to allow petitioners who were physically unable to comply with the requirements of our degrees, to have their petition received, and once accepted to be assisted in every possible way to receive our symbolic degrees. DIRECTIVE RE ALCOHOL (see Appendix B) EDUCATION We are all called upon to make a daily advancement in Masonic know- ledge. It is an admonition which we cheerfully accept and one that will last until we lay down our working tools, yet one which few of us can honestly say that we have followed on a daily basis. Masonic Education can take many forms, and it is encouraging to see that more and more Worshipful Masters are providing the opportunity for the brethren to learn more about our Order by promoting our Correspon- dence Course and by including short presentations at meetings in the summons and newsletters. It is essential to our very survival that our new members be provided with the encouragement to develop an interest in continuing Masonic Education as a life long passion. "We seek the truth, for that alone can make us free." LODGE BUILDINGS Our Masonic homes are in constant need of our attention — physically and financially — as we must always present a Quality image in the com- munities. It is sometimes a worthwhile exercise to walk across the street and take a good look at the building we call home and, hopefully, see a building that is a credit to the community, a building that is in good repair and is well maintained, with a lighted Masonic sign and a Canadian flag. In short, a building that reflects the pride which we have in our Order. MAPLE LEAF PIN The lapel pin which combines the Canadian Maple Leaf and the square and compasses was approved last year (Section 384), and this expression of loyalty to our Country and our Craft is now being widely used by our brethren throughout the jurisdiction and beyond. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 37 MASONIC HOLDINGS The Masonic Holdings Corporation has been tremendously cooperative as the Memorial Building in Hamilton became a totally Masonic building in 1994. The upper level, which was previously leased to a commercial tenant, became the new home for The Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Masons, The Masonic Foundation of Ontario and the Grand Lodge Library and Museum. An evolution of which all Masons can be proud, and special thanks are due to President Dr. Eric W. Nancekivell and all of the directors of the Masonic Holdings Corporation. LIBRARY Our Grand Lodge library was moved this year from the basement floor to the upper level of the Grand Lodge Memorial Building in Hamilton, and together with the Museum was officially opened in May, 1995. We strongly recommend that this is the appropriate time to plan for the continued evolution to meet the needs of the twenty-first century, exploring the means now available for the storage and retrieval of information. MUSEUM The Grand Lodge Museum was also officially opened on May 27, 1995, on the upper level of the Memorial Building in Hamilton. We are most grateful to Heritage Lodge No.730 G.R.C. for the financial assistance in furnishing the display cabinets. The committee has done a superb job in relocating the library and establishing the museum in the past year. We now have a place to display and conserve the artifacts of our Masonic heritage. Brethren are urged to contact the committee if they know of items which could be considered for display. NEWSLETTERS Many lodges publish a newsletter which is mailed with the monthly summons, and each year a growing number of lodges are taking advantage of this opportunity to improve communications with their brethren. It does require some resources and some dedicated effort; however, the benefits to be gained from the extra work are well worthwhile. During the past year we have witnessed more District Newsletters, providing information and educational material on lodge and district activities. All those involved in these valuable communication tools are to be commended on their efforts. 38 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION ONTARIO MASON In the second year of operation the magazine was published in the Fall of 1994 and the Spring of 1995. Mailed prepaid directly to every member at his home address, the magazine provides a valuable link in our communi- cations chain. Many favourable comments have been received on the content and quality of the magazine, and the way news about all the regions of our jurisdiction is conveyed to all of our members. PUBLICATIONS All of the Grand Lodge publications are presently being reviewed. Many brethren have suggested that publications should also be available in large type editions so thereby providing access to more brethren. I would strongly recommend that, wherever possible, this request be given consideration. MENTOR PROGRAMME This programme was launched in 1985 by Grand Master A. Lou Copeland as part of the five point programme to "Ignite Masonic Pride." Our late beloved M.W. Brother laid the groundwork for one of the most essential programmes of our Grand Lodge, one which is even more vital after the successful launch of Friend to Friend, which has attracted so many new quality candidates to our Order. Full use of the Mentor Programme will enable these new members to take their rightful places in our lodges, and to blend comfortably into lodge activity. REGIONAL WORKSHOPS The Regional Workshops which began in 1994 are being repeated in 1995 and are planned to continue in 1996; each year following the same format, but featuring a new programme providing information on different topics. SUSPENSIONS The suspension of a brother for nonpayment of dues is a heavy responsibility for a Worshipful Master under any circumstances, but parti- cularly when the brother is no longer resident within the jurisdiction of the lodge or when he is advanced in years. It presents an even more perplexing problem when his whereabouts are unknown. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 39 The value of personal, face-to-face contact cannot be overestimated, and if the brother has moved beyond the jurisdiction of the lodge, perhaps it would be helpful to seek the assistance of the local lodge nearest his new address. The complete listing of lodges by location is available in the Grand Lodge annual Proceedings, which also provide the secretary's name and address. We must all try to work together to improve our statistics in this vital area. YOUTH GROUPS The future belongs to our young people and we must do all that we can to help them to be ready to assume the responsibilities that lie ahead for them. "If Masonry is to survive for future generations, some attention must be given to the training of our younger men. There is no organization that offers the wholesome training to a youth in his formative years as does the Order of DeMolay, and DeMolay deserves the complete support of the Masonic Fraternity." These are the words of M.W. Bro. Harry S. Truman, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Missouri and President of the United States from 1945 to 1952. Brother Truman was an outstanding Mason and we would do well to heed his advice, and extend his thoughts to include the young ladies of the Order of Job's daughters and the Order of Rainbow for Girls. Our youth groups need our support both financially and physically, and we must institute long range plans to assist in their development CONCLUSION We look to the future with a renewed sense of confidence and with the knowledge that many new challenges await as we prepare to enter the new millennium, providing the opportunity for growth and development that has been the landmark of our order since time immemorial. Our potential to contribute for the betterment of the society in which we live is enormous, we are all charged to work while it is yet day, for the time comes when no man can work. Our personal contribution can take many forms, the important point is that we perform our allotted task to the best of our ability, for if we are to 40 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION pursue quality and excellence, we must pay equal attention to all of our Masonic duties, the seemingly simple task is worth doing well, and each task is just as important in maintaining the fabric of the Craft. At the end of our journey on this sublunary abode, the spirit returns unto God who gave it. We are all here for a relatively short time, and no one amongst us knows how much time is left. We came alone and we leave alone, for we are individuals, each endowed with certain faculties, each enjoying many privileges and each assuming certain responsibilities. We are responsible as individuals for our conduct in this life, and we know that all of our actions are not only observed, but are also recorded. Masonry need have no fear for the future, providing that our members are true to its precepts and follow the illustrious example of our prede- cessors. By the QUALITY of our lives, by our readiness to SERVE, and by the infectious happiness of our brotherhood, we SHALL be true to our ancestors, and responsible to our successors by what WE DO TODAY!

It is imperative that, without exception, all necessary permits and permissions will be obtained from regulatory authorities and complied with in every respect. ► Driving a motor vehicle after consumption of certain amounts of alcohol is prohibited by law. ► The possibility of the legal liability of any host must be considered. ► Masonic dignity and decorum must be maintained at all times, so that the Craft will not be discredited by the irresponsible use of alcohol. ► All of the foregoing must be considered when renting to non-masonic tenants.

Officers and Members of Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: We have audited the statements of financial position of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario as at Apnl 30, 1995 and the statements of revenue and expenses and fund balances for the general and segregated funds for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the organization's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. Except as explained in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement presentation. The organization derives net special programme fund revenue from address labels and calendars, the completeness of which is not susceptible to satisfactory audit verification. Accordingly, our verification of these revenues was limited to the amounts recorded m the records of the organization and we were not able to determine whether any adjustments might be necessary to alter revenue, net earnings, assets and fund balance. In our opinion, except for the effect of adjustments, if any, which we might nave determined to be necessary had we been able to satisfy ourselves concerning the completeness of the special programme revenue referred to in the preceding paragraDh. these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the organization as at April 30. 1995 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Hamilton, Canada May 30, 1995 Chartered Accountants On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by the Grand Treasurer, the Auditor's Report was adopted. REPORT OF THE GRAND TREASURER To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge AF. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: I am pleased to report again this year that the financial position of your Grand Lodge continues to be in a strong and healthy situation. Total revenues in the past year were more than S644,000, with expenses well contained at some 5571,000, giving a 58 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION surplus for the year of some $73,000. The net worth of the Grand Lodge General Fund now stands at $1,895,000, up from $1,823,000 one year ago. The investments held by the General Fund are all of a highly liquid nature and for the past five years have been managed to our entire satisfaction by professional investment counsellors, Cassels Blaikie & Co. Ltd. The Audit and Finance Committee and the Management Committee join with your Grand Treasurer to meet quarterly with the investment counsellors and we have regularly confirmed to the Board that we are well satisfied with the quality of their investment management. The mandate given to Cassels Blaikie is that not less than 70% of the portfolio be invested in high grade and mid term bonds, the balance being permitted in good quality blue chip equities. We might add that a standing invitation to all members of the Board of General Purposes permits their attendance as an observer at any of our investment committee meetings. We recommend the approval of a fee adjustment to be paid in future to our investment counsellors Cassels Blaikie as follows: Our existing fee structure pays Cassels Blaikie a flat fee of $20,000 per annum. In view of the increase in the value of the portfolio since the original engagement of Cassels Blaikie, it is now recom- mended that effective August 1st, 1995, the fees paid be struck as one-half of one percent (per annum) plus brokerage commissions. We estimate that this fee amendment will result in aggregate charges of not more than $23,000 during the year ahead, based on their letter of June 26, 1995, on file in Grand Lodge. The Memorial Fund is in a similarly good condition in spite of the small excess of disbursements over revenues during the past year. The amounts disbursed to benevolent applications total about $100,000, with gross revenues from investment income and bequests and donations totalling $95,000. Nonetheless, our investment portfolio dedicated to the work of the Memorial Fund continues to be in excess of $1,000,000. The Commutation Fund continues to grow very satisfactorily as the investment income and commutation fees are accumulated and there have been no expenses allocated to this Fund — the result being that we now have virtually $750,000 in this Fund, up by $73,000 in the past year. The budget for the General Fund in the year ahead anticipates a continuation of our balanced budget. We hope to find ways to enhance the money in the Memorial Fund to ensure it is self-sustaining to meet the requirements of the Committee on Benevolence. The Commutation Fund should be built up to not less than $1,000,000 and as evidenced above, we continue to make progress towards that goal. The aggregate of the General, Memorial and Commutation Funds now totals $3,654,000, up by $141,000 in the past year. You will agree that from a financial perspective our situation appears quite secure and it is the mandate of the Grand TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 59 Treasurer, the Audit and Finance Committee and the Management Committee to ensure that our future prospects remain bright and enhanced with a solid financial footing. The Special funds programme which was established to accommodate the support of the Label and Calendar programmes has received a very generous response. The total contributions over the two years since the launch of the first Label Programme have now touched nearly $1,000,000, of which NET revenues to Grand Lodge have been nearly $450,000. The generous support of Masons across the jurisdiction to this initiative of Grand Lodge has been something of a windfall and has permitted special programmes which otherwise might not have been considered. Those programmes are itemized in the detailed financial reports which form part of this presentation. The major outlays being support of the Ontario Mason magazine, the workshops and the preparation of a promotional video. We participate frequently during the year in meetings with Cassels Blaikie to review investment decisions, with the Management Committee to discuss financial aspects in general and with the Audit and Finance Committee to set and review budgets. We are also in regular communication with the Grand Master and the Grand Secretary in monitoring the overall financial affairs and conditions affecting the security and long term financial good health of your Grand Lodge. We cannot close without a strong word of recognition to the prudence and responsible handling of day to day affairs by your Grand Secretary. We also must recognize the care with which the Benevolence Committee deals with disbursements of benevolence and to the Management Committee for the deliberations they give to the financial aspects of the various special programmes which they administer. The Grand Treasurer also acknowledges the restraint which has been shown by the several committees of Grand Lodge in managing their expense requirements. We look forward to a continuing and healthy financial status for our Grand Lodge during the years ahead. It appears presently there will be no need for any increase in lodge assessments for the foreseeable future. Respectfully submitted. T. R.

GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers, and Members of the Grand Lodge A. F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: It is my pleasure to present herewith the annual report for the year ended April 30, 1995, containing a recapitulation and a summary of all the lapel buttons awarded during the year.

Arthur Saalmans Scott Lodge No. 421, Grand Valley Ralph Livingston Adair Elma Lodge No. 456, Monkland SEMIANNUAL RETURNS Semiannual Returns have been received from 647 constituent lodges and the information contained therein has been entered in the records of Grand Lodge. Statistical information may be found in the audited statement presented by the Grand Treasurer and in other tables printed in the annual Proceedings of Grand Lodge. It must be noted that several Semiannual Returns were unduly delayed in completion and return this past year. Regrettably it must be reported that these delays have again made it impossible to complete the statistical information required in the preceding section of this preliminary report. Even as this report is written no Return for the period July 1, 1994, to December 31, 1994, has been received from Orient Lodge No. 339, in spite of repeated promises to the contrary. Hence the statistical information reported herewith is as yet incomplete. PRINTING AND PUBLICATIONS Interest in the publications printed and distributed through your Grand Lodge Office was extremely high during the past year. A quick review of the Financial Statement will verify the large increase in sales. The assistance of all who helped in the distribution of these books is acknowledged with grateful thanks. 70 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Unfortunately the stock of several publications was exhausted during the year; however it is trusted that this will be remedied in the near future. DISTRICT SECRETARIES' MEETINGS I was again privileged to participate in several District Instructional Meetings for Secretaries. These meetings have proven to be not only interesting and challenging, but also most helpful and informative to those in attendance. Districts who do not have a forum for their Secretaries to exchange thoughts and ideas with their counterparts are missing an opportunity to assist those who perform such a great service to the Craft. Indeed, it becomes much easier to carefully emulate that which is praiseworthy in others if one is given a chance to enjoy the benefits of group discussion with his peers. Once again, I reiterate the willingness of your Grand Secretary and/or his Assistant to participate in District Instructional Meetings for Secretaries. VISITATIONS During the year numerous Masons called in to the Grand Lodge Office. Many came from across the waters and sought information on lodges and their meeting times and dates. Others came and extended greetings from their Grand Lodges. Special mention should be noted of the privilege we had in receiving senior Grand Lodge Officers from the Czech Republic, the Regular Grand Lodge of Belgium, and the Grand Lodge of India. Attendance at the Conference of Grand Secretaries of North America in Fargo, North Dakota, also afforded the opportunity to visit and dialogue with counterparts from the four corners of the world. The Conference of Grand and District Grand Lodges of Canada also proved helpful in providing a forum for dialogue and the sharing of ideas, problems and, yes, even solutions. THE MASONIC INFORMATION CENTRE John Robinson had a vision that a Centre for Masonic Information was necessary and could be created to effectively provide information for members, the general public and the media that would assist in response to the criticisms of Freemasonry. John donated $5.00 from the sale of each TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 71 copy of his book "A Pilgrim's Path" to establish the Centre in 1993. Unfortunately, John passed away just as the Centre faced its initial challenge in creating pro active materials to counter the adverse criticism created by the study being conducted on Freemasonry by the Southern Baptist Convention. In November of 1993 I was invited to serve on this Centre's committee and have been the sole Canadian voice on the committee of seventeen who represent Masonry across the face of North America. Meetings have been held at approximately four month intervals in Washington D.C. and have proven to be most stimulating, and exciting results are now emerging. A sampling of some of the materials produced reads as follows: A press kit composed of statements on FACTS ABOUT FREEMASONRY; FREEMASONRY and RELIGION; HISTORY of FREEMASONRY; ORGANIZATION of FREEMASONRY; FREEMASONRY and SEC- RECY; THE YOUTH ORDERS and WHAT IS FREEMASONRY. Booklets entitled - A RESPONSE TO THE CRITICS OF FREE- MASONRY; IS IT TRUE WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT FREE- MASONRY? and THERE IS NO SIN IN SYMBOLS have also been made available. Fact sheets entitled FREEMASONRY AND WOMEN and FREE- MASONRY AND BROTHERHOOD are currently on the drawing board. It should also be noted that much of the drafting and proofing is accomplished by correspondence and telephone, as sometimes the meetings tend to take on the atmosphere of a think tank. Interestingly, the services of a professional Public Relations Consultant who happens to be the daughter of a now deceased member of one of our lodges here in Ontario have been utilized. While the committee feels it is producing quality hard copy that can be used to better educate Masons, and the profane alike, it has not lost sight of the need for quality products that can be electronically disseminated. Hence we are currently looking at the possibility offered by the creation of a Masonic Newsreel designed for regular release to inform both Masons and profane of current Masonic highlights on local cable TV networks. Spot advertisements on radio are now in use in numerous jurisdictions and, while early indications suggest excellent response, cost does become a concern. The production of a 58 minute Video designed to be used on P.B.S. to tell the Masonic story was approved by the Conference of Grand Masters of 72 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Masons of North America; however, our committee is currently questioning the need, especially in view of the cost of such a production. Speaking as a Grand Secretary, I can assure you that to have readily available, well thought out quality statements and fact sheets, is of real benefit when suddenly the need arises to respond to enquiries, be they from local or national press or even our own membership. These tools are priceless and it has been rewarding and exciting to have had a part in their creation. CHANGE Change has been the common denominator in your Grand Lodge Memorial Building during recent years. This year has been no exception, as extensive renovations to the interior of the building have been undertaken to accommodate the needs of your new tenants. The Grand Chapter Royal Arch Masons of Ontario, the Grand Lodge Library and Museum and The Masonic Foundation of Ontario are now located on the second floor. Your Grand Lodge Memorial Building now offers one stop shopping so to speak, as four separate but related Masonic entities are all under one roof. On behalf of all in your Grand Lodge Office, a warm welcome is extended to the several new tenants and we wish them success and happiness in their new homes. Change is evident in your Grand Lodge Office routines as well. Change that could be said to have been incomprehensible only a short decade ago has arrived. The computerization of records now allows the automation of more and more routines. This past year three certificates were redesigned, enhanced and added to inhouse automation. The Master Mason Certificate, the Past Master Certificate and just recently a General Certificate, all feature newly enhanced graphics, standard size, English language, computer generated, laser printed and meet standard mailing requirements. Should you wish to upgrade, as so many brethren are doing, your old large size Master Mason Certificate bearing both English and Latin text, just have your Secretary return it to your Grand Lodge Office requesting replacement. Change has also occurred in your Grand Lodge Office Staff as Mrs. Margaret Bunting, secretary for the past number of years, retired at year's end. She had been a faithful employee, accommodating and appreciated by all who came to know her over the years. I know you will all join with me in expressing thanks to Mrs. Bunting and in wishing for her all that is good in her retirement years. TORONTO. ONTARIO, 1995 73 CLOSING In conclusion brethren, we live in exciting and challenging times where change is the order of the day. We must accept the challenge and make change our friend as we prepare for the dawn of the twenty-first century. Respectfully and fraternally submitted. R. E. DAVIES Grand Secretary On motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by the Grand Secretary, the Report was adopted by Grand Lodge. REPORTS OF THE DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS The forty-six reports of the District Deputy Grand Masters were presented by the Grand Secretary and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by the Grand Secretary, they were referred to the Board of General Purposes. CONDENSED REPORTS FROM THE DISTRICT DEPUTY GRAND MASTERS (1995) Prior to 1970, selections from the annual reports of the District Deputy Grand Masters, concerning the state of Masonry in their various districts, were included in the Annual Proceedings. The report of the Grand Historian details the way in which this was done from 1857 to 1970. The importance of these reports merits inclusion in the Proceedings, albeit in a condensed form. Algoma (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Robert F. Manz I am not going to pretend that the state of Masonry in Algoma District is the best that it has ever been. There are many challenges that are facing us now and that will be confronting us in the future. The challenge to keep up with the times. The challenge to make meetings more interesting and promote better attendance. The challenge to maintain a lodge building. The challenge to delegate back-ups for the whole ritual team. Even the challenge to send the Worshipful Master or a delegate to attend the Grand Lodge Communication. What a disaster it is for the Worshipful Master to lose the opportunity to represent his lodge at the Annual Communication of Grand Lodge. The Friend to Friend programme has had a positive impact in the district; it is a wonderful tool that must be utilized to develop its full potential. Algoma East (8 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Arthur Burlein Based on the enthusiasm, participation and zeal of the members of the Craft, it is my opinion that the state of Masonry in Algoma East District is excellent. The 74 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION membership is holding steady over the past year. With the turnover of officers and members, more frequent training in the ritual work byway of workshops, using modern techniques, should be employed. There could be concern for some lodges, based on their financial situation. High operational and maintenance costs are resulting in shrinking net gains for lodges who own buildings and who do not have any supplemental income. Brant (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Robert W. Shoup Masonry in Brant District is in reasonably good shape; however, some lodges are more alive than others. Work at the lodges on the official visit was well done and the officers quite confident in performing the duties of their respective offices. Several lodges were found to be varying slightly from the ritual and were requested to conform to the authorized work, so that all lodges are operating in the same manner. The Masters', Past Masters' and Wardens' Association is a strong communications vehicle and does much to hold the lodges together. Bruce (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Lloyd W. Hammell Membership in the district is remaining fairly steady; the average age being approximately 53 years. Bruce County is becoming a haven to retired members and many are affiliating with the local lodge. The Mentor Programme and the Friend to Friend are being utilized with good results and they are aided by active Phone Committees. Open Houses and Ladies' Nights are becoming the norm in the district. The singing of the National Anthem is becoming part of the meeting agenda. In these ever changing times lodges need to rethink their long range plans for the future of their members. Chatham (15 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Brian D. Case Masonry and the true Masonic spirit are alive, healthy and improving in Chatham District. While we showed no growth in our overall membership this year, we showed no significant reduction either. We still have lodges that have had no initiations; we also have lodges who have remained active with degree work and others who have success- fully balloted on new candidates and are starting to show a positive change of direction. Total Quality Masonry was the ideal and the theme for the year. The Friend to Friend programme was installed in every lodge, who indicate that it was most helpful when they showed it to prospective candidates. Eastern (20 Lodges) R. W. Bro. P. Michael Whetstone The condition of Eastern District is mixed. We are blessed with many talented and active members and through their efforts Masonry always appears to be alive and flourishing. The Masonic association does an excellent job of encouraging and assisting lodges in a wide variety of fund raising and community activities: Curling Bonspiels, Golf Tournaments and Duck Races providing support to many worthy causes all across the district — Winchester Hospital, Rideau Camp, Battered Women's House, Bursaries to twenty-one college and university students; many of which receive extensive local media coverage and public exposure. Some lodges made good use of the Friend to Friend programme; however, many TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 75 lodges who need to help themselves have not made use of it. These lodges also seem to be less likely to visit and participate in district activities, where the benefits to be gained from participation would be evident to them. Erie (9 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Grant W Golden The lodges of Erie District are all located in the county of Essex. I was able to visit every lodge twice and some, for special meetings, several times. The members of the various lodges have a close relationship, meeting as they do at many community functions, in the stores, at coffee clubs, in addition to regular lodge events. This relationship carries over into lodge work and there is a great effort to do the best work possible. The southernmost lodge in Canada, and the one with the smallest resident population (7), is located on Pelee Island. For the official visit (by tradition the last visit of the year) 119 brethren signed the register, arriving by plane and boat from the U.S. in addition to our Canadian brethren. Frontenac (19 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Glenn V. Baker Masonry in Frontenac District is strong and vibrant. There was a slight drop in membership as there were not enough new candidates to offset losses. Emphasis to address this problem is in three areas: enhancing public image in the community to attract new quality members; reactivate as many "dormant" members as possible so they in turn will attract new members, and, third, to use every opportunity and programme available to involve the new members in lodge activities. Programmes such as: lodge building signs, community entrance signs, the Mentor and Friend to Friend programme. I believe that the video, the D.D.G.M.s Communique, the Ontario Mason and the work of our Masonic Foundation will help to stimulate interest and enthusiasm in Masonry, which will, hopefully, spill over into the community at large. To improve the quality of our Order we need to look after the introduction, education and assimilation of our initiates, and rethink and revitalize our meeting agenda. Lodges should be encouraged to devote some of their meetings to activities other than degree work or the usual Masonic Education. The task of preserving our Craft lies basically with each and every lodge in its own community and each lodge must, above all else, find ways to make an involved and enthusiastic career Mason of each and every candidate. Georgian North (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. A. J. Tony Hope Georgian North, as a district, is strong and vibrant, with all except two of the lodges complying with the Constitution and the authorized work in the required manner. The exceptions have been noted and addressed. The Friend to Friend presentation was a major disappointment — only six of the twelve lodges participated and some presentations were made with little thought or preparation. It is recommended that a District Chairman be appointed to supervise this excellent programme, to answer lodge requests for assistance in presentation. Lodges should become more involved in community activities, participating in local events such as festivals and fall fairs, with district assistance available, if required. Georgian South (10 Lodges) R.W. Bro. L. Harvey Street The district has strong and weak lodges, but it has many dedicated and 76 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION knowledgeable Past Grand Lodge Officers and Past Masters. A committee has been formed to consider the feasibility of supporting a DeMolay Chapter in the district, and are in the process of relaying their report to the lodges for their consideration. Lodges are involved in a great many community activities, and some are renting the banquet room to community groups at a reduced fee. A district Friend to Friend night was held and was well attended, sparking a flame of interest. The video has been shown in lodge rooms, community centres and churches, and is being used by Investigating Committees when interviewing prospective applicants — having a very positive impact. Grey (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Charles S. Glasspool This year, Grey District has presented a favourable and positive image. District events have all been reasonably well supported, including the official visits, the Divine Service, the Grand Master's Reception and the Ladies' Night, which was reinstituted this year. The banquets at the respective lodges all exhibited the quality and generosity which marks the hospitality for which the district is famous. Some areas of concern are the conflicts of meeting dates that affect six lodges and distances are also a problem for some lodges. Hamilton A (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. John R. Hanna During each of my official visits I was properly received. The protocol in the lodge room and in the banquet room was generally very good to excellent. The work of the evening was always done in a dignified and sincere manner. Most lodges now hold their banquet before the meeting at official visits and installations. This, in my opinion, is a wonderful idea. I chose to deliver my addresses in the lodge room, after the candidate returned. This seemed to be well received and I hope that they contributed to better understanding and enjoyment of our Craft. The support of district events by the brethren has been outstanding. I am a little concerned at the slow start of the Friend to Friend programme in the district; hopefully this will be addressed this year. Hamilton B (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. James M. McArthur At the start of the Masonic year I made a point to visit all of the lodges. This turned out to be a big advantage, as it generated a relaxed feeling with the Masters. During the visits I had the opportunity to present many long service pins to deserving brethren. There were many well planned, well attended Open Houses where the Friend to Friend video was a big hit. The Maple Leaf lapel pin was another huge success, worn proudly by the brethren. It was an honour to represent the Grand Master and unveil the cornerstone of the new home of Hillcrest Lodge No. 594 in Hamilton. It was a delight to see the number of young line officers that we have in the district. The lodges are initiating a goodly number of new candidates, which is very encouraging, and the calibre of work being performed is excellent. Hamilton C (15 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Donald L. Jagger While some lodges are experiencing a decrease in membership, several are experiencing a resurgence in membership and particularly in attendance, probably due TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 77 to improved programmes, more social activities and well planned banquet hours. I was well received by all of the lodges and the work was well performed. In many instances the Deacons appeared to be in need of more training. It was my pleasure to present many long service pins, Masonic Education certificates, and, on behalf of the Masonic Foundation, bursaries to needy students. Finally, I feel that there is a need for early and better training by Grand Lodge of leaders for the Friend to Friend and Mentor Programmes, who would then be available to instruct the lodges in their proper use. London East (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. D. Garry Dowling Overall, the lodges in London East are faring well. Some are adjusting to the nineties and the needs and wants of the "new" Mason slowly, while others are still refusing to recognize that Masonry is not as it was. We have not yet recognized en masse that we need new and creative approaches to attract the Mason of the future. We are seeing a surprising resurgence in initiations, but seem unwilling to capitalize on this trend by dealing with our new brethren any differently than we did our candidates of 15 - 20 years ago. Lodges must utilize the material that is available, such as the Friend to Friend and Mentor Programme to full advantage. The brethren appointed to investigating committees must be our most knowledgeable brethren, who are "in tune" with the times. To build for the future, the legacy of the past must be understood and appreciated, but we must give our brethren a reason to come to lodge . . . and the reasons are different than they were one or two decades ago. The lodges which are succeeding at adapting to the times, generating enthusiasm and leading the way, these are the lodges that are gradually putting the fun back in Masonry. Their brethren look forward to lodge meetings and indeed are quick to let you know it. More lodges could profit by learning and sharing from the leaders. London West (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Arthur S. Rake The William Mercer Wilson Centre has been the greatest project ever undertaken by the brethren of the London Districts. The square and compasses superimposed on the east and west facade of the building will be a lasting tribute to the vitality of our fraternity in the London area. There are plans for a lodge room on the lower level and, once it is completed, Moffat Lodge No. 399 will relocate from Harrietsville, continuing as a working lodge with strong emphasis on quality Masonic Education. The districts also combined on many other special events: reception for the Grand Master, annual walkathon, Divine Service, much cross visitation, and a special Lodge of Instruction which was well attended by both districts. This type of seminar should be held on an annual basis, as the quality of our work is so important to the life of our beloved Craft. The West Winds is the district newsletter. This year two issues were published and the format was changed so that it can be inserted in a No. 10 envelope and provision was made for each of the lodges to have a report included. Greater emphasis should be placed on retention of new Master Masons by involving them regularly in the work of the lodge, demonstrating to them that they are wanted and needed, and that they are important to the lodge. Past Masters could play a beneficial role by being more involved and assuming responsibility for mentoring new members as they progress from candidate to officer. They should be the friend of the new member, rather than a critic. 78 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Muskoka - Parry Sound (8 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Larry W. H. Jeffery Masonry in Muskoka-Parry Sound is alive and doing well! Each of the lodges now reside in their own building. Strong No. 423 and Corona No. 454, both small lodges with limited finances, have overcome many obstacles and have completed their new lodge buildings. Donations of time, talent and funds from members and from the neighbouring lodges have made a reality of what seemed to be an impossible dream. Minor renovations were taking place in all of the lodges in the district, and varied from rejuvenating exterior flowerbeds to the construction of an office for the secretary. The Friend to Friend programme has been highly successful in the district; the video was shown on community television channels and at many Open Houses. The brethren have been encouraged to support these events and the Divine Services and Memorial Services, where we are in the public view. Niagara A (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. E. Warren Lay In general, Masonry in Niagara A is in satisfactory condition, with some lodges in excellent shape, the majority in average state and two struggling to hold their head above water. I have to add that the Worshipful Masters of these two lodges are doing their level best to improve their lot. I truly believe that they will be successful in their endeavours — their drive and enthusiasm is something to behold. I had the opportunity to attend a Friend to Friend evening in St. George's Lodge No. 15. The evening commenced with a buffet meal and while we enjoyed coffee and dessert the video was shown; after the video, we all adjourned to the lodge room clad in our regalia. A short explanation followed relating to the room and the furnishings, after which I gave a brief explanation of my office. There were eight friends present and the lodge received six applications. The programme works and I am happy to have been a part of it. Niagara B (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Barry A. Douglas The district participated in the capital campaign of the Family and Children's Services where our fund raising goal was $10,000. There were initial concerns that this was overly ambitious; however, approximately $20,000 has been pledged by ten of the twelve lodges. Several newspaper photographs have recognized this Masonic involve- ment. Favourable press is essential to demonstrate our involvement in the community. Favourable publicity should attract the interest of quality candidates. The Friend to Friend programme is superb. Many lodges have presented the video to their members and many lodges show it to the candidates and their families. Mem- bership loss has had an effect on work performed within the lodges. Although there is nothing wrong which could not be cured by a significant influx of new members, my opinion is that a consolidation of lodges and, perhaps, lodge buildings, seems inevitable. Planning for this eventuality is essential. Nipissing East (8 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Neil Macdonald The three lodges meeting in Ffaileybury have been experiencing difficulty in attracting new members and the forthcoming year is extremely important to their future. In spite of these difficulties, the attitude towards Masonry is very high in the district. The advent of the Friend to Friend programme has sparked a new interest in our fraternity, and an increase in applications to those lodges that have embraced the TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 79 programme. The quality of the work is generally good to excellent, but a workshop in the fall would help to bring all lodges up to the same level. Lodge buildings are in excellent shape — all recently or newly renovated. Concerns are centred around declining membership and attendance. There is a general feeling that promoting the Friend to Friend programme will bring in quality applications and raise our membership to a healthy level. The economy appears to be on the upswing and this too should have a positive effect on our membership. North Huron (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Lee A. Grove Masonry in North Huron District continues to be very strong, while the average age is still a concern, the recent (since September 1994) influx of young candidates has been impressive and pleasing. Membership is showing signs of growing. The Friend to Friend programme has played an important part in this increase, with every lodge showing the tape to every applicant and his family. So we are confident in stating that the district is "rounding the bend" in membership. The Worshipful Masters have proved to be excellent, both in leadership and character. The support which they gave to district functions was outstanding, and four of the twelve had a 100% attendance record at the official visits. Ontario (15 Lodges) R. W. Bro. Brian E. Keighley Communication through Participation was the district theme and, with the publication of "The Widow's Son" newsletter, the channel of communication in the district opened wide. Twelve of the lodges participated in the first edition and plans are underway to publish the wide variety of materia! which has been received for the second edition. There has been a noticeable decrease in the number of Past Masters who are filling progressive chairs. This is proof of a new interest brewing in the hearts and minds of Masons in this area. Overall attendance has shown an increase and visitation has also been positively influenced as a result. Another major plus was the involvement of the District Librarian. In addition to lapel pins, car emblems and Friend to Friend videos, he had one of the largest collections of reading material in the province, actually increasing attendance at several meetings, when brethren made special trips to obtain an item which he carried to all official visits and installations. Ottawa 1 (16 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Edward B. Williams Nine of the lodges in the district are in the city of Ottawa and seven are located in small towns and villages. Only three lodges have Past Masters in the progressive chairs and this number is expected to decrease in the near future because of new members having been initiated. The average age of the membership is 58 years. There are numerous candidates waiting to be initiated during this next Masonic year. There has been a slight drop in membership over the past year but it is believed that this will change with next year's report because of the success of the Friend to Friend programme. Only good things are foreseen for the district because of the insight of Grand Lodge in introducing the Friend to Friend programme. The responsibility now lies with the lodges to make full use of this valuable tool. Most of the lodges are in a good financial situation. Several are operating with 80 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION very little money in the bank or investments. One of the major concerns for the lodges which use the Walkley Road Temple is the high rent needed to carry the expenses of the building. Ottawa 2 (16 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Ralph D. Morgan The Worshipful Masters of the district conducted themselves in a very upstanding manner in district events and on visitations to another lodge or district. They formed the nucleus of a fine team effort. The work in their lodges was one of having fun and hard work. The enthusiasm shown by the brethren in their respective lodges will no doubt have a positive influence on the newer members of their lodge. This can only benefit the district. There continues to be a slight decline in membership. Financially, this is a troubling item and some lodges continue to issue Life Memberships without restric- tions. The regular members have been adversely affected because of the need for dues to be increased as a result. This year many new, young Masons have come into the Craft. They are very interested in what is going on in the lodge and in the community, and are willing to work when called upon. The Mentor Programme has been very helpful, and has also drawn the interest of some of the older brethren who were not fortunate enough to have this programme available to them. Peterborough (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. David W. Trotter Masonry in Peterborough District is very much alive and flourishing. A large number of new candidates have been young men which brings new life to the Craft. The average age of members is somewhere between 50 and 60. This influx of younger members will be the life blood of our membership. Most of the lodges are in good financial standing; however, there are some who are just breaking even. It is difficult to maintain a building large enough to accommodate a lodge when expenses are rising and revenue remains constant. Their are some excellent ritualists in the district and the work is usually performed with few errors; however, some were not conforming to the authorized ritual and have been given the necessary instruction so that they may do so. Friendliness is evident in all lodges. Hospitality flourishes making it a pleasure to visit all of the lodges in the district. Prince Edward (17 Lodges) R.W. Bro. William T Richardson On the official visits to the lodges proper protocol was observed and the work was generally acceptable. We emphasised the importance of the quality of the work and the proficiency of our officers, adding dignity and quality to our meetings. The Friend to Friend programme is being implemented in all of the lodges, and copies of the video were presented to every public library in Prince Edward District. Community involvement is increasing with participation in the Brighton Applefest parade and many local fairs and parades. Prince Edward Lodge No. 18 placed an article "Upon the level, by the square" in The County magazine, covering the early development of Masonry in Prince Edward County. This is community communication of the highest order. Recommendations included: full support be given to the establishment of a TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 81 district newsletter. The Royal and National anthems be used at our meetings or banquet. Establishment of a District Benevolence Fund. St. Lawrence (19 Lodges) R.W. Bro. C. Gerald Robertson Masonry in St. Lawrence District is, for the most part, in good condition. Atten- dance at all functions has seen a good increase, some of the reasons for this resurgence may be: the new programmes which were introduced; the Friend to Friend and Mentors; the beautiful plaque which was presented to the district by St. Lawrence Lodge No. 131 from Southampton in Bruce District in 1994. It was decided this would be presented at each official visit to the visiting lodge with the most members in attendance. This has caused a good friendly rivalry, which has increased as the year progressed from five members as the first winner to twenty-seven on the final visit. The talks at the official visit would be kept to a maximum of ten minutes, and the topics would be timely and of interest, and the introduction of the District Officers would not be accompanied by a speech from them. This meant that meetings would finish at an early hour while leaving time to socialize. St. Thomas (11 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Charles G. Nichols Masonry in St. Thomas District is very positive. The membership declined slightly but this seems to be levelling off. Attendance has greatly improved and the spirit of brotherhood is present throughout the district. The Friend to Friend video has been a real asset. The Regional Workshops were very informative on interesting subjects. It has been a great pleasure to present long service pins and certificates to deserving brethren at regular meetings. The St. Thomas District "Travelling Gavel" was most sought after this year, with several lodges attempting to "claim" the gavel by visiting sister lodges in large groups. This has been great for attendance and full lodge rooms. The district newsletter is very informative, providing information on past and future events and worthwhile commun- ication to each and every member. Many functions were open to the public and lodges participated in fairs and parades, allowing the public to gain knowledge of what Masons do in the community. Sarnia (21 Lodges) R. W. Bro. Kenneth L. Kreibich Each of the ninety-eight events which we attended always had a greater impact than expected, and we experienced no unpleasant surprises. Our public events: Ladies' Nights, Divine Services, Memorial Services, donations and bursary presentations, were done with humble dignity, and we always came away from these events with Masonic pride of accomplishment. The recipients were confidently comforted and encouraged by our Masonic care and support. It is important to point out that we must operate our lodges like a successful business. From the reports of the lodges in the district the average dues are approximately $38 while the estimated total cost per member is a minimum of $55. They are all too low. Initiation fees ranging from $100 to $200, averaging at $135, and when the cost of an apron, case and V.S.L. are considered, we wonder if we are selling Masonry too cheaply. The Friend to Friend, Mentors and other programmes, are all tools supplied by Grand Lodge, implemented by a team effort, they have culminated in complete success for Sarnia District. 82 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION South Huron (15 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Ronald H. Maines The Friend to Friend programme has been well received. The Mentors Programme is being used in some lodges but not in others. We have a few lodges who tend to live in isolation and not participate actively in district events. There may come a time where the possibility of amalgamation of some lodges becomes a matter for consideration. It has been suggested that in these times of corporate rollbacks and economic uncertainty that Grand Lodge should have some programme to assist members in job location. It is gratifying to see that, despite the trend of the times, a number of lodges with good young officers in their ranks, and also lodges who have not had candidates for some time, now receiving petitions for membership. If we are to be true to our principles we must practice our tenets in our everyday lives, providing assistance to victims of abuse and those in need. Sudbury - Manitoulin (9 Lodges) R. W. Bro. Ronald S. Zinkie The condition of Masonry in the district generally shows vitality and what appears to be a vigour of interest by right minded members of society for membership in the Craft. Officer corp are relatively young and enthusiastic in most of the lodges, and many are enjoying an increase in the number of applications. Great care is taken to execute proper protocol and lodges are, for the most part, financially sound. The lodges employing the Mentors Programme in its entirety are being rewarded by continuing interest and involvement of new members. Some lodges have displayed a reluctance to implement this and other informative programmes which are now available, or to become involved in their communities. Meetings exhibit genuine camaraderie among the brethren and the refreshment period is always well-blended with social interaction. Temiskaming (9 Lodges) R. W. Bro. Gordon N. Hopcraft Three or four visits were made to each lodge with each lodge performing a degree. The Friend to Friend programme was highlighted — it is an excellent tool. Each lodge has held an Open House. One lodge advertised this event in the local paper and on community television — five guests arrived and two applications were received. Lodges held fundraising events to offset the cost of building maintenance; these events raised funds and also created fellowship. The twelve hour shift, the seven day work week, increased workload, job cutbacks and family demands are but a few of the stresses shared by many that have an effect on lodge attendance. Irregular attendance and lack of fellowship means that some Masons are not gaining the true meaning of the Craft. We need to address this problem. Fees and dues have remained constant for some years. Are we in step with the times? Perhaps this could be discussed at the Regional Workshops. Toronto 1 (23 Lodges) R.W. Bro. B. Andrew Downes Traditionally the district has been divided into two camps, the "inner-city" and the "suburban." My predecessors have done much to tear down the walls of division and we are now reaping the benefits of their travails. The enthusiasm expressed by the younger suburban lodges has been captured by the older lodges and we have melded into one district, each caring and helping the other. Their expertise in dealing with the Mentors and the Friend to Friend programmes has shown that new concepts will work. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 83 An enlightened, enthusiastic, confident Worshipful Master, leading by example, is the key to integrating new paths toward the future. We encourage all line officers to be active in your Wardens' Association, to work to be the best that YOU can be. A major concern lies in the area of some of our members leaving the beautiful concepts of our ritual within the portals of the lodge and failing to apply these principles in their every day life. We must, above all others, exemplify to the world our tenet of Brotherly Love. Toronto 2 (19 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Michael Weingott The best spirit of Freemasonry, its rites and practices are very much alive and well in Toronto District 2. The example set by our Grand Officers both individually and collectively at functions such as Installations is outstanding. Collectively, we have some remarkably fine talent and drive among our membership at all levels. Regrettably, when you divide all that talent among nineteen lodges it does not fall equally and I am and shall continue to be very conscious of our weaker lodges — they need our help. Our numbers will drop this year by about 200 members. Some of this is a paper loss as records are corrected, so the main effect will be in reduced income to the District and Grand Lodge. This accentuates our need to attract new members and, having done so, to make sure we maintain their interest and develop them into keen, active, contributing members. It seems that the present programmes that we have in place are working and producing the required results, but only in those lodges where there is the will and the drive to make them successful. Toronto 3 (17 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Michael H. Woolley The impetus of the starting theme: Contemplate, Consolidate and Carry-On is almost self-evident. The district needed to become more efficient in its use of ideas and resources. This year a District Ladies' Night was arranged so that those lodges who could not afford to run one themselves would have one available. This was very well received and those in attendance agreed that this inaugural event was worthwhile and should be continued. Communication was a priority and the first district newsletter was produced, and conflicts in schedule were addressed for mutual benefit. The District Charity "One of our Own," to purchase a specially equipped van for a quadriplegic member of one of our lodges, has been a success in terms of bringing our members together for a common cause, and with more and larger donations coming in, it will become a financial success as well. What has been really gratifying in this endeavour is the help we have been given by members and lodges from outside our district. Toronto 4 (18 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Donald A. Campbell I would like to acknowledge and congratulate the efforts of those brethren for their leadership towards implementing the necessary changes that have enhanced and rejuvenated our Craft in today's society. Our goal this year was to respect and maintain the past and to educate the brethren so that we are prepared for the 21st century. Each of the lodges has experienced rebirth or quality growth. We have improved our communications. We have made Masonry fun. Bringing Masonry into the 1990s by improving our community image, many of those experienced Master Masons have returned to their lodges and are getting involved, several of whom are now junior 84 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION officers. This is the rebirth of the lodge. The Masters have seen that their members were given the opportunity to learn and to act, so that Masonry will be seen in its true perspective as a force of good within society. Over the past twelve months forty-five candidates have been initiated and many more are in waiting. Friend to Friend made this possible. To prove a point, two brethren went to interview a prospective candidate, the video was shown and the family were encouraged to watch and participate. The candidate's father was so impressed that he asked to join, and both father and son were initiated together. This is quality growth. Fraternity or friendship is the catalyst that unites all Masonic activities and transform work into pleasure. I am happy to report that the brethren of Toronto District 4 understand this and they are proud to be Masons. Toronto 5 (15 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Peter J. Mizzoni On official visits the attendance of the members and visitors has been maintained with a slight increase. I believe that the "Lazar" travelling gavel has been a factor, plus the high level of support that the brethren have shown to the District Deputy. The overall membership of the district showed a slight decrease; however, there has been a gradual increase in the number of initiations. The new programmes, Friend to Friend and the Mentors, which were introduced this year, have proven to be very effective. The response to the Mentor's Programme by the lodges was excellent, due in no small part to the efforts of the district chairman. Even though there is still one lodge in trouble and one on the verge as far as their existence is concerned, amalgamation seems to be the reality. Other than the problems mentioned, the condition of Masonry in Toronto District 5 is good. The future of the district is excellent. Toronto 6 (15 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Frank V. Westhorpe While the aging process continues to be the biggest attrition factor in the membership of the district (average age is currently 62.4 years) and new initiations are failing to offset the constant decrease, this year has been a positive one for Masonry, particularly on the attendance of visitors on official visits. Attendance of visitors increased by 51% over the prior year. This healthy increase can be attributed to a number of factors: the introduction of an Accompanying Lodge Program; the introduction of the Travelling Square of Friendship; introduction of the musical closing on all official visits; the singing of O Canada after the close of the official visit; recognition by District Deputy of long serving brethren of the lodge. In addition to the above steps taken to improve attendance at official visits, the followings steps were taken to improve the level of interest of the brethren: full discussion and implementation of the revised Installation Ritual; a Masonic baseball game; introduction of a Speechcraft Dynamics Course; a very active Education Committee who presented a play; and the publication of four issues of the district newsletter "The Cornerstone," which was well supported and received by the brethren. Toronto 7 (26 Lodges) R.W. Bro. W. Thomas Cober I have been most impressed by the enthusiasm and the number of planned activities involving the effective use of Grand Lodge materials by almost every lodge in the district. A few lodges that two or three years ago were experiencing some TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 85 difficulties are now progressing well; several have initiated five or more candidates with more waiting. The ritual is very well done. We presently do not have any inappropriate lodge or ritual practices. Correct Masonic protocol is being practised in the lodge room and at the banquet hour. Every lodge is now singing O Canada at the conclusion of their lodge meetings. The lodges and the brethren gave excellent support to the district charity project, the Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), raising over $28,000 for this cause. It is recommended that lodges continue to promote social and community activities, to improve communications and to strive for excellence in our ritual and administrative practices. Victoria (14 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Edward W. Brohm Masonry in Victoria District is on the increase and there is a renewed interest in the existing members. The Friend to Friend video has been an immense help when visiting a prospective candidate. This renewed interest, due in part to the Friend to Friend programme and the Ontario Mason magazine, must not be allowed to dwindle. This is a good start but it must be expanded upon. New concepts and new ideas must be ongoing within our Grand Lodge. I have kept my talks at the official visits as to how the principles of Masonry apply to our every day life. My own personal feeling is that you can only flog the history of Masonry so much. I have also stressed the importance of seeking quality in new candidates not quantity — you don't have to be big to be good, but we certainly have to be good to survive. Waterloo (16 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Donald L. Attridge The majority of lodges in Waterloo District are well administered and enthusiastic in the performance of their duties. However, there are three lodges struggling to keep afloat. Their problems are not financial, but the lack of enthusiastic new officers rather than Past Masters in the principal chairs. We are encouraged, though, by the interest shown by a number of young Masons in starting to go through the chairs. The quality of work performed is of a high calibre. The Mentors Programme is at work in all lodges where they have candidates, and this is very evident when watching the floor work and how the candidate conducts himself in the lodge. We have enjoyed seeing a good number of younger candidates being initiated, passed and raised during the year. Membership throughout the district is holding steady. Several lodges have a back up of candidates waiting, while others have none. This, of course, is a reflection on the lodges in need of more positive leadership. Wellington (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Harold A. Main Before the official visits and installations all of the lodges were visited on a fraternal basis. The Worshipful Masters and the officers seemed to be well skilled and keen, and the ritual is being adhered to most carefully. The lodges have all received the revised Installation and have been directed to conform to the ritual therein contained. The Friend to Friend pamphlet and video were personally delivered to all of the Worshipful Masters — the programme is being incorporated into Open Houses. This has been instrumental in attracting new members, as has been the Mentors Programme. 86 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Although the economy is not the best, most lodges are holding their own, becoming involved in community events and working with youth groups. New chapters of both DeMolay and Job's Daughters were formed this year and would be apprec- iative of any help that could be given from our Grand Lodge. Western (10 Lodges) R.W Bro. Wayne G. Pear en On visits throughout the district this year, a strong core of dedicated and hard working Masons in each lodge was evident. The presence of many younger, enthusiastic officers in the chairs looks well to the future of the district. Members have tackled financial problems head on, achieving good results. All but two lodge buildings appear to be in good order, and those two are taking steps to see that required repairs are going to be done. The ritual is well done and the Past Masters are supporting the lodges in their various endeavours, both in the lodges and in the communities. The Friend to Friend programme is being actively used to promote the Craft in the various communities and to increase our ranks with men of good character and community minded citizens. The membership decline was less than in previous years. The lodges have been encouraged to put out a newsletter, to improve communication and, hopefully, decrease the demits and suspensions. Wilson North (12 Lodges) R.W Bro. Harry R. Ketchabaw The lodges are all running a fine line on finances, and there is not enough money to bring the lodge buildings up to acceptable standards. The buildings are, generally speaking, not a place which you would be proud to bring your wife or family into. The lodge rooms are all very good, but the exterior, entrance and banquet room are, in most instances, in need of upgrading. Lodge dues and fees need to be addressed. Most of them are far too low to finance lodge operations. It would be useful to have a paper or statement on religion which could be used to answer some of the negative criticism from various fringe groups. The history of Masons in public affairs is well known to us, but not to the general public. Public or community information on Masonic activities and history would be a boon to us. I am concerned about the lack of visiting and involvement by the Worshipful Masters and officers; with the exception of a few, they are not taking advantage of the privilege of visitation. Wilson South (12 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Larry A. Hicks Masonry in Wilson South seems very healthy. Several lodges have Worshipful Masters who, with the support of the Past Masters, could provide great leadership. Unfortunately, this needed support is sometimes not forthcoming, leading to decisions based only on short term needs. The Friend to Friend programme was presented at a district meeting, but not all of the Worshipful Masters were able to attend — eventually they all viewed the presentation. It seemed difficult for some of the lodges to visualize the special evening which we were asking them to host in order to present the programme. Very few pursued it even when they were urged to do so. All agreed that it is a great format, very useful for the Committee of Inquiry, but they fall short of the mark to complete the outlined meeting format. The officers are very capable in presenting ritual in a clear and concise manner, TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 87 and protocol is adhered to when the lodge is open; in the banquet hall a more relaxed attitude prevails. Windsor (10 Lodges) R.W. Bro. Paul W. Hooper Lodge finances were a concern as they have been to my predecessors in this office. I am pleased to report that almost all of the lodges have finally recognized the importance of taking care of their finances. Several lodges are engaged in fundraising in the community, not only for their lodges but to help charitable organizations in the area, providing an excellent public relations benefit, which in turn has helped to increase our membership. Over the past several months almost all of the lodges have received petitions for membership, with some receiving several. We have now run into the problem that is so pleasant for all of us, and that is, when are we going to be able to find the time to put on all of these degrees? The biggest thing to happen in the district this year (and for many years) was the change of format for Border Cities Lodge No. 554. After languishing for many years near oblivion, the lodge decided it was time for some drastic action. With the complete support of Grand Lodge and the other lodges in the district, they changed to become a Daylight Lodge. The inaugural meeting in this new format, which was also their 75th Anniversary, was attended by the Grand Master and over 200 Masons. This event gave the entire district a big lift. REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. D. I. Greenwood, Chairman, and on motion of R.W. Bro. J. T. Cassie, seconded by R.W. Bro. Green- wood, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: One of the functions of this committee is to act as an advisory committee to the Grand Master and you, sir, must be commended for the way in which you have kept this committee informed as to the wants and needs of the Craft in this jurisdiction in general, and I thank you for your co-operation. To the Grand Secretary for the way he has kept and distributed the minutes of our many meetings, and his sometimes much needed advice and words of wisdom, I thank you. To the members of this committee, consisting of M.W. Bro. C. E. Drew, Grand Master; M.W. Bro. R. E. Davies, Grand Secretary; R.W. Bro. J. T. Cassie, Vice- chairman; and R.W. Bros. W. T. Anderson, H. N. Britton, S. H. Cohen, W. E. Elgie and H. A Leal. Your thoughtful and timely deliberations are appreciated by this Grand Lodge, especially by this chairman. 88 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION It is recommended by this committee that a suitable widows pin be made available to members of the Craft, to be presented to the widows of our departed brethren along with a card with a suitable explanation of appreciation for services rendered to the Craft. The concerns of this committee due to the problems encountered by the Red Cross in the collection, distribution and testing of blood in the past and now under study by a judicial committee, was that we must continue to urge our members to donate blood to this very worthy cause and that we should not take part in any major campaigns. It was the recommendation of this committee that the chairman of Public Relations purchase a suitable display unit for use in shopping malls and in our new tent, which will be used at such events as the plowing match and other outdoor activities. Our thanks go out to R.W. Bro. Hensler, P.D.D.G.M. of Bruce District, for his very generous donation of this excellent tent. After the disastrous earthquake in Kobe, Japan, and an appeal having been received through the Masonic Service Association, a $500 donation was sent to the Grand Lodge of Japan through the M.S.A At a later meeting and having received a similar appeal from the Grand Lodge of Oklahoma on behalf of the victims of the bombing of the Federal Building in Oklahoma City, a further $1,000 was forwarded through the M.S.A. to the Grand Lodge of Oklahoma, who declared that the only criteria to be a recipient of any donated funds was "need." It was suggested by this committee that because of its acceptance by the Craft, we continue with the calendar programme for 1996 and that the return address label programme be put on hold. Instead, that the brethren be offered the opportunity to take part in a greeting card programme in 1996. The operational budgets for the various committees were reviewed by this committee and submitted to the chairman of Audit and Finance for their approval. Much discussion took place regarding the mandate of the various committees. Each committee chairman was asked to submit his comments regarding the duties of their committee to ascertain if there was overlap, or if the needs of the Craft were being realized in their present form. A subcommittee consisting of R.W. Bros. Britton and Leal was struck to study these comments. This study will be forwarded to members of this Board in time for presentation at our next meeting, one year hence. Brethren, it was my pleasure to report the findings of this committee to meetings of the Management Group held in November, 1994, and May of 1995. This is respectfully submitted on behalf of the Management Committee. D. I. GREENWOOD Chairman TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 89 REPORT OF THE LIBRARY (MUSEUM) COMMITTEE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. F. G. Dunn, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Dunn, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: On behalf of the Library (Museum) Committee consisting of the following members: R.W. Bros. A.A. Barker, E.R. Habermehl, G.H.T. Jones, DJ. McFadgen, D.W. Townsend, R.G. Wands, T.C. Warner, G.G. Wilkes, AG. Wolfe; W. Bro. Nelson King (Secretary), and the undersigned as chairman, it is my pleasure to submit this report. Brethren, your committee is pleased to report that you now have a first class Library which has been expanded to two rooms on the second floor of the Grand Lodge Memorial Building at 363 King Street West, Hamilton. The larger room has been fitted with custom made shelving and three artifact corner cabinets with lighting installed. This room will be used for the Circulating Library and videotapes. The shelving in the smaller room is for the Research Library. In both rooms there are flat display cases for viewing rare books through locked glass. There is a mixture of old and new book shelves and, over time, will blend into the colour of the old, making them as one. The shelving is light oak veneer over plywood. The Royal Arch Masons of Ontario, The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Canada and The Heritage Lodge No. 730 A.F. & AM. in Cambridge, have been invited to loan the Library their books for the brethren to use for research. At this time I wish to recognize the faithful volunteers who have manned the Library on their shift days and nights. They are R.W. Bros. A. G. Wolfe, R. Faulds, T. Warner, V.W. Bro. C. Nicolson, W. Bros. H. Ogilvie, D. Gordon, R. Ross, J. Mannisto, R. Todd and D. Rowbottom, W. Best, J. Chamberlin. To these brethren a sincere "thank you." This year the number of books loaned were 131 and 22 videos. Visitors to the Library — 66. Mailed out of town — 40 books and 45 videos. The Museum and Archives are finally a reality as this subject has been brought up over the years by many brethren. The late M.W. Bro. A. Lou Copeland and R.W. Bro. W. Norman Buckingham were instrumental in getting the ball rolling after holding their first meeting and with the support of our present Grand Master, M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew, also the Grand Secretary, M.W. Bro. R. E. Davies, and other brethren behind the scenes made this undertaking a success. 90 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION The mandate under which the Grand Lodge Library, Museum and Archives Committee operates is - To be responsible for the administration and staffing of the Library and Museum with personnel during specified hours as advertised. To be responsible for the acquisition and cataloguing of all books, periodicals, artifacts, archives, audiovisual materials, patents, jewels and anything of a Masonic nature. To repair, refurbish and restore where practicable books and artifacts. To provide assistance and counsel to individual Masons, lodges and districts in such matters as may fall within its competence. The mandate as stated leaves no room in one's mind as to what books and artifacts we will be willing to receive as long as it is presentable for display purposes. Brethren, you and you alone can make it happen. We now have the shelving space for the books and the display cases for the artifacts. "MAKE IT HAPPEN." It is our children's heritage, we must preserve it. The Committee express their gratitude to The Heritage Lodge No. 730, Cambridge, for their generous donation of $5,000 towards shelving and display cases at the Grand Lodge Memorial Building. This presentation was made to M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew on Wednesday, November 16, 1994, at The Heritage Lodge Installation. Through the persuasive efforts of R.W. Bro. E. R. (Ted) Habermehl, P.D.D.G.M. Waterloo District, his employer donated 10 tub chairs to which we had minor repairs made to stabilize them, and are now in use in the upper Board Room. The Royal Arch Masons of Ontario donated their board room table which was refinished. There is no need to use the lower Board Room, as a separate entrance enables the use of the upper one. An Open House was held on Saturday, May 27, 1995, from 2:00 to 4:00 P.M. of the entire Memorial Building. Refreshments were served to a goodly number of guests and the overall improvements to the second floor were well received. Brethren, the Grand Lodge Library, Museum and Archives are now a reality. We seek your support for artifacts, books and monetary donations that we may establish this undertaking for many generations to become a learning and show place for Masons to research and view the past. To the Grand Secretary and his efficient staff for their constant support, we thank you. Respectfully and fraternally submitted. F. G. DUNN Chairman TORONTO.

Mullen, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Mullen, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: The Benevolence Committee is pleased to report that during the year ending April 30, 1995, there was dispersed, in the interest of benevolence, 43 grants and Christmas Gratuities from the Memorial Fund totalling $82,390. In addition, $1 1,000 was paid for services provided by our Grand Lodge staff and $5,847 was paid to the investment firm of Cassels Blaikie for management fees. Total expenditures were $99,237. Income on investments was $83,265. Hence a net deficit of $15,972. On April 21, 1995, your committee reviewed 32 applications and anticipates more will be received. We find that amounts given by lodges ranges from $50.00 to $1,800, therefore we encourage each lodge to be as generous as possible. Your committee is aware of a smaller country lodge that on two occasions passed the hat and received $1,800 and $1,000 to assist two brethren. It is evident to this committee that there will probably be an increased number of requests for benevolence and anticipate our total Grants of Benevolence in 1995-96 will be approximately $85,000. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 93 During the fall of 1994 members of the committee participated in five Masonic workshops in Toronto, Sioux Lookout, Thunder Bay, Peterborough and Hamilton. The presenters discovered that there is definitely an interest in benevolence throughout our Grand Jurisdiction. In each workshop we were warmly received and sincerely thanked for our presentations. It continues to be our responsibility to assist the Lodge and District Benevolence Chairmen in order that they can fulfil their duties and responsibilities. A word of appreciation is extended to R.W. Bro. Kenneth L. Whiting, Supervisor of Benevolence, for his untiring efforts on behalf of benevolence and to our Grand Secretary and his staff for their assistance. Respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee - R.W. Bros. T. R. Davies, S. H. Cohen, R. T. Runciman, H. N. Britton, W. E. Elgie; V.W. Bro. G. W. Nelson; R.W. Bros. C. G. Copeland, E. G. Finkbeiner, M. MacKenzie and E. V. Ralph. P. J. MULLEN Chairman REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON FRATERNAL RELATIONS This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. J. D. Jackson, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Jackson, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: As reported last year, your committee on Fraternal Relations recommended, for varying reasons, that no action be taken at this time on requests for recognition then on hand from seven Grand Lodges. Your committee has again reviewed these, and additional requests received during the year, and now report as follows - The Grand Lodge of Bulgaria - Under date of April 28, 1995, we were informed by letter over the signatures of the Grand Master and Grand Secretary, and over the Seal of the Grand Lodge of Bulgaria, that some members of lodges under their protection had broken away, adopted a new Constitution, elected a new Grand Lodge of Bulgaria and a new Grand Master. It was further reported that "all the members of the lodges under the protection of the Grand Lodge who have worked and voted in an irregular way are suspended and brought to Mason Trial." From other sources we hear that in order to bring some stability to the Masonic scene in Bulgaria, the United Grand Lodge of Germany had chartered three Regular Lodges in Bulgaria. Hence, your committee must again recommend that no action be taken at the present time on the request for recognition on file from the Grand Lodge of Bulgaria. 94 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION The Grand Orient of Lebanon — Your committee now understands that the Grand Lodge of New York's District Grand Lodge of Lebanon is reactivated and has eight Regular Lodges operating in Lebanon. It has further been suggested that the Grand Lodge of Scotland may also have lodges reactivated in Lebanon. With the return of regular Masonry to Lebanon, your committee finds no justification to recommend recognition of the Grand Orient of Lebanon. Valle de Mexico - The request received from this Grand Lodge has again been revisited and, as yet, your committee's concerns re irregularities are not satisfied and hence we recommend no action be taken on this request. The Grand Lodge of Romania — Your committee understands that, in spite of a somewhat adverse Masonic climate, a small dedicated group of Masons struggle to keep Masonry alive in Romania. It has been suggested by our European contacts that possibly one lodge only may be operational in Romania at the present time. Hence, your committee recommends that no action be taken at this time on the request for recognition of the Grand Lodge of Romania. The Grand Lodge of Yugoslavia - Your committee can do no better than quote verbatim from the Annual Report, dated February 21, 1995, of the Commission for Recognition of the Conference of the Grand Masters of Masons in North America — "The Grand Lodge of Yugoslavia changed its name in 1993 to the Regular Grand Lodge of Yugoslavia. Its regular 'Annual Assembly' was held in Belgrade on June 5, 1994 under the leadership of its Grand Master, Dragan Tanasic. The Constitution was revised and other minor actions taken which do not affect its regularity. The territory of the Grand Lodge was limited by the Constitution to Serbia and Montenegro. It has survived in spite of the turbulent conditions in other parts of the old country of Yugoslavia." This Grand Lodge deserves credit for maintaining regular Masonry in this troubled part of the world. While some of our sister jurisdictions had previously extended recognition, many have not and feel it prudent to delay any decision on recognition until after cessation of hostilities and civil strife. Your committee recommends that our Grand Lodge also await the end of hostilities ere making any further recommendation. The Grande Loge Nationale Togolaise — The Grande Loge Nationale Togolaise was consecrated on June 6, 1992, by the Grand Lodge Nationale France. This Grand Lodge is considered regular in all respects and, in spite of some concern expressed by many about the political climate and unrest in the general area, many Grand Lodges, including the United Grand Lodge of England, have extended recognition. Following discussions with the sponsoring Grand Lodge Nationale France, your committee now recommends that the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario extend recognition to the Grande Loge Nationale Togolaise which, in our opinion, meets all requirements for recognition The Grande Loge du Senegal — This Grand Lodge was consecrated by the Grand Lodge Nationale of France on January 16, 1993. Recognition had been requested in April, 1993; June, 1994, and, again, in March, 1995. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 95 The Commission on Information for Recognition of the Conference of The Grand Masters of Masons in North America reported on February 22, 1994, that "It is the opinion of the Commission that the Grande Loge Du Senegal is regular, meeting all the standards of the Commission, and is entitled to recognition." Following dialogue with several overseas Grand Lodges, including the Grand Lodge Nationale of France, and noting the United Grand Lodge of England's official recognition, your committee now recommends that "the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario extend recognition to the Grande Loge du Senegal which, in our opinion, meets all the requirements for recognition." Grande Loja Maconica Do Estado De Rondonia — A formal request from this Grand Lodge for recognition dated February 9, 1995, was received on February 17, 1995. Your committee notes this State Grand Lodge was founded on April 10, 1985, and has operated regularly and successfully during the past decade. It is also noted that it had long since received the endorsement of the Commission on Information for Recog- nition of the Conference of the Grand Masters of Masons in North America and is presently recognized by many of our sister Grand Lodges. Your committee respectfully recommends that the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario extend recognition to the Grande Loja Maconica Do Estado De Rondonia which, in our opinion, meets all regular requirements for recognition and should be added to the list of State Grand Lodges currently recognized in Brazil. Comments presented one year ago concerning divisive problems existing in Greece, Italy and India might well be restated again this year; however, we content ourselves with merely referring you to the closing paragraphs in this committee's report recorded in the 1994 Proceedings of Grand Lodge. Respectfully submitted. JAMES D. JACKSON Chairman REPORT OF THE MEMBERSHIP COMMITTEE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. T. Shand, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Shand, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: The Membership Committee was established in July, 1993, as a special committee of Grand Lodge to address membership concerns and to enhance the Mentor Pro- gramme. In July, 1994, it was restructured to include the Ontario Mason magazine, the Mentor Programme, the "Friend to Friend" membership programme. Each sub- % GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION committee chairman reports to the whole membership committee for administrative purposes, which include progress, approval and budget items. The Ontario Mason Magazine Volume One, No. 2, and Volume One, No. 3, of the magazine were produced and mailed in October, 1994, and April, 1995, directly to the home of each member. They were provided at no cost to registered Ontario Masons, through your generous support of our Grand Lodge Special Promotions programme. The many letters of endorsement and the articles provided from every corner of our Grand Jurisdiction demonstrated a continued interest in this publication. The sub- committees responsible for its composition work tirelessly to improve magazine content, to provide a quality product, and, at the same time, be prudent of maintaining costs. The Ontario Mason magazine provides one of the most important communication links among all levels of Masonry and the member. Plans are underway for two issues during the 1995/96 Masonic year. Scheduled for October, 1995, and April, 1996, they will be produced and funded in the same manner as before. The magazine is a pilot project until 1997, monitored on a per issue basis, the committee has reviewed alternate means of funding in the event special project monies are not available. It is recommended that a $1.00 assessment (should funds not be available) be levied to each member, in order to subsidize publication. Tltis is the most equitable method to ensure every member receives the Ontario Mason magazine. The Mentor Programme Established in 1985, its purpose is to ensure that every candidate accepted is properly instructed in the fundamental principles of the Craft. A revised Mentor Programme (completed last year) has been distributed throughout our jurisdiction. The package contains an organizational chart, together with guidelines for the D.D.G.M., guidelines for the Regional Chairman, guidelines for the District Chairman, guidelines for the Lodge Chairman, and a simplified Annual district Statistical return. It goes on to include detailed instructions for the lodge mentor and an overview of the Mentor Programme suitable for district and/or lodge seminars. The programme itself has been developed into a user friendly package of four lectures and to date has met with the approval of those chairmen who use it to its full potential. The material is presently in an 8V2 x 11 format until refinements are made and will ultimately be produced in booklet form. // is recommended, with the endorsement of several regional chairmen, — the D.D.G.M. review the appointment of the District chairman, establish that he TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 97 is desirous to serve, cognizant of his responsibilities and the best motivated for the position. — the Worshipful Master ensures the selected member is not just a name on the lodge summons, but one who has a genuine interest to serve as mentor. The "Friend to Friend" Membership Programme A programme of Interest Renewal, Revitalization and Membership Enhancement. In July, 1994, M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew, Grand Master, commissioned the video tape "Friend to Friend," Freemasonry in Ontario, to be completed and ready for distribution by Labour Day, 1994. Production and supply were completed by 31 AUG 94 and distribution was made (via the D.D.G.M.S) by 30 SEP 94. Regional representatives comprising members of the Board of General Purposes, with the assistance of the appointed Grand Lodge officers, were to liaise with the D.D.G.M. and assist with programme implementation. Both groups were provided with copies of the instruction manual. A tracking sheet was developed to assist the committee and report the progress of the project. In April, 1995, a twelve-hour "think tank" meeting was held to review: what was the original programme? — September 1994; where are we now? - April 1995; where do we want to be? - July 1995 and beyond; what do we have to do now to get there? — April to July 1995. The meeting was attended by eleven committee members and six participating guests (P. D.D.G.M.s and Grand Lodge committee chairman) and written submissions were provided by a present D.D.G.M. Our Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master attended at different times of the day to observe and participate. The purpose of our meeting was to ensure that the "Friend to Friend" membership programme perpetuates itself through 1995 and beyond. Several recommendations were developed and presented to the Grand Master and the Deputy Grand Master, Chairman of the Board of General Purposes for their consideration. The committee recommends the establishment of a five-year plan, with measurements and checkpoints. An annual review of the "Friend to Friend" status, continuance of the "think tank" process, which could be expanded to facilitate other committees of Grand Lodge. All aimed to improve the Quality of our membership and focused on Total Quality Masonry. Regional Workshops The membership session of the regional workshops held at London, Hamilton, Ottawa, North Bay, Peterborough, Thunder Bay, Sioux Lookout and Toronto in 1994 provided valuable feedback from our brethren in addressing the following questions: a) How can Masons make the Craft and Craft activities more visible in the com- munities? Feedback: Open Houses, Masonic events in local media. 98 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION b) What can be done to improve lodge meetings? Feedback: visitation, Masonic education and disperse workload to all members. c) How can the Mentor Programme be changed or improved for the benefit of all? Feedback: clear definition of roles and responsibilities, district training programme. Several of these recommendations have already been implemented. We will con- tinue to plan for the future based on the input from throughout our jurisdiction. The Membership Committee is presently developing a 1996 seminar presentation entitled Lodge Management;. Consultation, Consensus and Coping with change. The purpose of the seminar will be twofold: first, to examine the various techniques of lodge management that exists and to determine which approach to leadership is best suited to a modern day Craft lodge; and second, to address the management of change. The goal of the seminar will be to determine how to instill a successful management scheme in the lodge. The committee has held nine whole membership meetings, numerous subcommittee meetings, and a twelve -hour "think tank" meeting during the past year. Sincere thanks are extended to R.W. Bro. Terry McLean, Vice-chairman, "think tank" facilitator, and my right arm. To subcommittee chairmen R.W. Bro. Jack Leitch (Mentor Programme) and R.W. Bro. Harold Stanley (the Ontario Mason) for their leadership, commitment and dedication to service. To all committee and subcommittee members that made up the Membership Team, Masonry is enhanced by your valued participation. All of which is respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee: M.W.

ONTARIO, 1995 99 REPORT OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON LODGE FINANCES This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. G. Wands, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Wands, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: On behalf of the Advisory Committee on Lodge Finances, it is my pleasure to submit the following report. During the year, committee members, again, had the opportunity to offer advice to several lodges experiencing financial difficulties. As we reported last year, in most cases, that advice was well received and where it has been put into effect, the lodges appear to be heading towards improving their financial conditions. Indeed, it is a source of satisfaction to receive, unsolicited, financial statements from lodges that had taken that advice and are proud to show their improved results. In addition to working with individual lodges, members of the committee are speaking to local groups and taking part in district seminars, regional workshops, and, most recently, the seminar here at Grand Lodge. It is interesting to note that these are not just speeches. The healthy discussions that take place and the comments about the timeliness of our presentation indicate that there are many lodges in need of assistance and willing to accept it. At these seminars and workshops, we continue to promote and distribute copies of the July 12, 1983, report of the Advisory Committee on Lodge Finances. Some lodges are fortunate to have the services of brethren experienced in accounting and finance, and as a result, are operating with proper records and are in good financial condition. Unfortunately, there are many lodges where that experience is not available. For the benefit of those lodges, this committee is taking two steps to simplify the understanding of lodge finances. In step one, the advice being given to individual lodges, groups, and seminars suggests that in addition to separating the building operation into a nonprofit, nonshare capital corporation, the finances should be segregated into four (or more, depending on the lodge) separate funds — Operating, Investment, Life Membership, and Benevolent — which would be held in four separate bank accounts or sets of investments. We then explain the purpose of each and the need to keep these separate and distinct. The understanding of the purpose of each of these funds avoids the tendency to spend money that is designated for other purposes. As step two, the committee is presently preparing a standard method of record- 100 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION keeping which will include a set of simple instructions for the secretary, treasurer, and auditors. To further assist lodges, the committee is establishing a network of District Financial Advisory Committees throughout the jurisdiction in order that the advice and assistance of this committee will be available locally. We, again, repeat our comments in last year's report regarding the operation of the lodge on dues only and the investing of initiation and affiliation fees. In may cases, lodge dues are far too low. Witliout including the income from initiation and affiliation fees, the total of all annual dues, whether paid by dues-paying members or paid from the life membership fund on behalf of life members, must be sufficient to cover the total annual operating cost of the lodge. In considering those dues, serious consideration must be given to eliminating different levels of dues for resident and nonresident members. The cost of maintaining each member is the same, regardless of residence. Initiation and affiliation fees should not be considered to be operating income. These fees must be in excess of the initiation and affiliation costs (apron, bible, Grand Lodge fees, etc.) and the excess of the fees over these costs should be transferred to an investment account and invested, with some of the interest earned thereon used, if necessary, to assist with the operation of the lodge. The principal amount in the investment account is then available to cover abnormal costs which occur in all lodges from time to time. Many lodges save on operating costs by recycling past masters' jewels. Now available from the Grand Secretary's office is a form entitled Acknowledgement and Trust Declaration which, when signed in duplicate by a past master signifies to his executor his intention that the jewel should be returned to the lodge on his demise. One copy is filed with his will and one copy held by the lodge. In spite of the fine explanation of the theory of life memberships in the 1983 report of this committee, improper management of the funds continues to cause problems. In some cases, the lodge failed to segregate the funds and they have been spent for other purposes. There are many cases where the fund is too low to generate sufficient interest to pay the dues of the life members because: 1. The lodge failed to use the table contained in the 1983 report. 2. The lodge failed to set aside funds for honourary memberships. 3. The brethren obtained their life memberships when the dues were much lower than they are today. The burden of the cost of operating the lodge is thereby falling on the dues-paying members. Since life members cannot be assessed additional costs, an explanation to those members of the increase of costs since they obtained their memberships might result in donations to the fund. It has been found that the brethren will respond when they know there is a problem. When such donations are received, they must be TORONTO, ONTARIO. 1995 101 deposited in the life membership fund and not used for other purposes. At the time the 1983 report was prepared, interest rates were at a high level and it was deemed that a real interest rate of 5% was sufficient to maintain the fund; however, over the long term, a real rate of between 2% and 3% is more realistic and we recommend that any lodges still making life memberships available should use the following table, based on a real rate of 3%, to ascertain the cost of a life membership. As a result, the following is a restatement of the section of the 1983 report of this committee entitled "Fund Amount Requirement," in which the rate has been changed from 5% to 3% and the ages are shown for every 5 years rather than 10 years. We also include instructions on evaluating the fund which should be done every three years. Life Membership Fund Amount Requirements It is recommended that a sinking fund table, based upon a "real rate of return", be used to determine the amount to be charged, set aside, and held in such a sinking fund for all life members. A correct "actuarially determined sinking fund" would require a different rate for each attained age. For simplicity, a rate has been determined for each 5-year age grouping. Such a sinking fund table takes into account how long the members in each group are anticipated to live. As age increases, there will be less members alive to require the expenses to be paid. Averages may not apply to only 1 or 2 members. However for a group of 200 (or more), if the proper sinking funds are set aside and the rules followed of only withdrawing the proper expenses, the fund will be expected to be sufficient for all the members. "Real Rate of Return" is defined as the excess interest earnings over the rate of inflation. Historically, there are fluctuations in both interest rates and inflation and high interest rates are usually caused by high current, high past, or anticipated high future inflation rates. There have been periods when the real rates of interest have been negative, but the average historical real rates of return are between 2% and 3%. If interest rates are 8% and inflation is 5%, the real rate of return is 3%. If interest rates are 9% and inflation is 12%, then the real rate of return is negative 3%. (This has been part of history.) If interest rates exceed the real rate of return, the excess of the interest earnings over the actual expenses of the life members must be retained in the sinking fund to cover future inflated expenses. The following tables show the amounts to be charged and set aside for the "Annual Expense" component of a life membership, based upon a real rate of return of 3%. Initiation and affiliation fees and commuted Grand Lodge dues are to be considered as additional required payments. To determine the amounts to be transferred to the Life Membership sinking fund for your lodge, multiply the annual lodge cost per member by the amount in Column A If, by lodge bylaws, a free life membership is to be granted after 30 years of membership, an amount should be set aside, at initiation, of the amount determined 102 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION by multiplying the annual cost by the factor in Column C. Similarly, if the lodge grants free life membership at the age of 65, then a similar calculation is required at initiation using Column B.

Bro. W. R. Pellow, R.W. Bros. T. E. Lewis, J. A. McLean, J. G. Pell, D. Wood; V.W. Bro. T. P. Hansen and W. Bros. D. D. Thornton and B. Pelman for their time and interest in assisting the committee. Respectfully and fraternally submitted. R. G. WANDS Chairman REPORT OF THE DISCIPLINE COMMITTEE This Report was presented by M.W. Bro. N. E. Byrne, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by M.W. Bro. Byrne, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & A.M. of Canada, in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Once again, your committee begs leave to report on its activities in the area of Masonic Discipline since the last Communication of Grand Lodge in July of 1994. For four successive years, ending in 1993, no Masonic trials were brought before your committee. However, this year I am pleased to report that your committee has not had to deal with any Masonic trials, or the decisions rendered at such trials. In fact, the provisions for a Certificate of Severance brought into our Rules Respecting Masonic Trials in 1989, may have given some erring Masons an opportunity without a full-scale Masonic trial and the resultant concern, embarrassment and, in some cases, disruption within the lodge, to quietly sever their relationship with the Craft and avoid any real feelings of guilt and embarrassment, which do not really serve any useful purpose for the accused, the accuser or the lodge. This year, in accordance with the Constitution, your committee chairman has reviewed and directed the Grand Secretary to issue three Certificates of Severance to three brethren who applied under Section 410.1. In every case, your committee chairman ascertained that no coercion or undue pressure was brought to bear on the accused brother and that his request for a Certificate of Severance was of his own volition, and something he wanted to do to ease the path leading to his severance from the Craft, equal to indefinite suspension. One brother had been convicted of fraud by the Courts and two had been convicted of assorted acts of physical violence. Masonic complaints were filed against three brethren in our jurisdiction and, after a thorough review by a Reviewing Committee, the committee found that there were no reasonable grounds to support each respective complaint. The report of the Reviewing Committee was referred to your committee, as required by Section 412(c) TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 105 and the complaints stand dismissed. In one instance, the Grand Master was called in to see that a conflict of interest did not arise where the complainant, a Worshipful Master of his lodge, attempted to appoint a Reviewing Committee to review his own complaint. Our Grand Master, being aware that justice must not only BE done, but APPEAR to be done, directed assistance from a DDGM to conduct a review of the evidence. That was done, and a ruling of no reasonable grounds was made. Your committee thanks that DDGM for his timely efforts, and congratulates him on an untasteful job well done. No Masonic trials took place accordingly in our jurisdiction this past year, and it is hoped that this indicates that good common sense, toleration of private piques and quarrels and acceptance of a Certificate of Severance may be the beginning of a new trend for your committee. Your committee, in general, would stress again two important principles. Firstly, if a criminal or quasi criminal act is involved with the complaint, every brother from the accuser to the Master of the lodge to the members of the Reviewing Committee should be absolutely certain that a criminal or other Court of competent jurisdiction has had a trial and dealt with the matter, and that the time for appeal has clearly expired BEFORE any Masonic charge is ever laid. Caution is extremely important, for if an accused brother is improperly charged or tried or improperly dealt with Masonically, the complainant, the lodge, the Worshipful Master, the Officers and each and every member could stand a real chance of being on the wrong end of the civil court action for damages (real or imagined), and generally this is not something that is easily covered by insurance. This is not idle speculation. Your chairman can recite several incidences where civil actions were only averted at the very last hour. All so unnecessary if those involved had sought proper help and guidance. Your committee stands ready and willing to assist at all times. The second principle has been presented to you in several reports of this committee in years gone by, but that advice seems to fall on deaf ears and certain isolated (thank goodness) cases. In short, Masonic charges and trials are not the place, nor the way to prefer petty personal piques and quarrels, which inevitably turn into causes "celebre" with some brethren on one side and some on the other. It is extremely divisive and upsetting to the lodge itself and to most of the other brethren who are at some distance from the centre of the fray. In almost every case, when a brother's esteem or pride has been threatened or challenged or where he may feel he has been seriously wronged by a brother Mason, your committee recommends that such brother should attempt to talk the matter out, seek assistance of another brother or brethren, or exercise Masonic charity and toleration (even in large doses) rather than resort to the consulting with Section 410 of the Constitution to see if he can find a Section that "fits" the perceived wrong, and then proceeding with the laying of a Masonic complaint. In most cases, these complaints are considered and reviewed by a Reviewing Committee, and no reasonable grounds are found and that becomes, or should be, the end of the matter, but not without cost. The aggrieved brother is frustrated because Masonry didn't jump in to solve his personal problem and winds up feeling wronged, persecuted and isolated; the Worshipful Master is faced with appointing a Reviewing Committee 106 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION (usually after consulting with the DDGM and/or the Grand Secretary), the committee members take the time and trouble to do a strange and unpleasant task, and the Grand Secretary gets into (in some cases) reams of correspondence and your committee has to review the findings of the Reviewing Committee. All to no avail. Surely charity, toleration, a little common sense and a big helping of brotherly love would produce a much better result for all concerned. Your committee knows it is easy to say, but the exercise of the aforementioned Masonic virtues will produce much better results for an aggrieved brother, the lodge and even Grand Lodge, than the laying of Masonic charges in the heat of passion for a "personal" affront or wrong doing. The test may well be "has this brother clearly and unequivocally offended Free Masonry generally? — or is it just me?" A serious question, which deserves a serious answer. In closing, your committee goes on record as being available through the Grand Secretary's office or through the chairman personally to aid and assist every brother with respect to a Masonic complaint, charge or trial. It is easier to ask at the beginning of a Masonic trial problem than wait until it is too late. Your committee extends its thanks to the Grand Secretary for his untiring efforts with respect to Masonic trials and discipline committee matters, which he handles on a regular basis throughout the year between the annual meetings of this committee. Your committee also extends its thanks to the several brethren of this jurisdiction who have assisted during the past year with Masonic Reviewing Committees and similar matters. As chairman of the committee, I personally extend my sincere thanks to each member of the committee for being available for your guidance and assistance, and for your support of the Craft through your work on this committee. All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted. Norman E. Byrne, P.G.M. Chairman REPORT OF THE GRAND HISTORIAN This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. W. McLeod, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. McLeod, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Once again, the Grand Historian must thank the Grand Master for honouring him TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 107 with this office. His duties, as set forth in the Book of Constitution, concern "the history of Grand Lodge." One may hope that the Historians of the constituent lodges are carrying out their responsibilities, but the Grand Historian has no authority over them. When we were casting about for a possible topic for this year's report, the Grand Master suggested that it might be appropriate to talk about the Reports submitted to Grand Lodge by the District Deputy Grand Masters. As we noted last year, from the beginning of our Grand Lodge these officers have supervised the lodges in their Districts. Their reports were first printed in the Proceedings for 1857. Gradually, as the mumber of lodges increased, and perhaps for other reasons, the amount of space required for the reports likewise increased. In 1863 it was 25 pages. By 1889 it had risen to 73, and by 1902 to 253. This amounted, in some instances, to more than half of the volume, and it clearly involved a substantial expense. From time to time, other Grand Lodges commented, both negatively and positively. Thus, in our volume for 1905, we are told that Oregon spoke of our printed proceedings as follows: "The most cumbersome feature ... is the publishing in full the reports of the District Deputies, some of which are all right when they really have something to say, but a majority are only words, words, and then some more words. . . . We doubt if there is a man living who ever read it all unless it is the proofreader" (li-lii). And conversely, the reviewer from Illinois "thinks that the reports of our District Deputies command more attention than any other part of the Proceedings, being so detailed and comprehensive" (xviii). Obviously our own authorities were aware of the problem. Thus, in 1927 (when the reports still filled 193 pages) one of the District Deputies mentioned a suggestion of the Grand Master that the reports should "be limited to certain space" (123). Gradually the comments on constituent lodges were curtailed, and synoptic reports became more common. But as late as 1937, more than one third of them still remarked on individual lodges. Apparently in 1937/8 the new Grand Secretary, E. G. Dixon, took a firmer line. From then on, specific lodges are hardly mentioned at all. The publication of the reports continued until 1970, when the practice ceased, and for the last twenty-five years, no District reports have been distributed. In earlier days one could derive a bit of joy, or at least interest, from the observations made by the District Deputy Grand Masters. Perhaps we might look at a few of the old reports, selected almost at random, and see what they had to say. In the Proceedings for 1889, these reports fill 75 pages. At least nine times we are told that the Deputy Grand Master, John Ross Robertson, had visited the District, to deliver his lecture on "The Craft History of Canada for a Century Past," at various centres from Windsor (63) to Ottawa (127). Just to underline how far the value of money has changed, we may note that one lodge was allowed to make a change in its by-laws, "reducing annual dues from 25 [cents] per month to $1.00 per annum" (68). Other lodges met in rented halls, for which they paid variously $25.00 a year (71, 75), $44.00 a year (73), or as much as $50.00 a year (76). 108 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION A District Deputy's life always has complications, perhaps even more in those days. A lodge in Toronto, we are told, was located in the centre of a smallpox epidemic, and was "not permitted to assemble for about three months, as directed by the Board of Health" (103). At another lodge, only four members showed up for the official visitation (72). On one occasion, the District Deputy was challenged with "regard to the constitutionality of the lectures which I deliver, they being entirely different to the lectures issued by the Grand Lodge" (73). Occasionally we find that the language has changed and the old expressions may be unfamiliar. For example, permission was granted for one lodge "to change their regular night of meeting from Wednesday on and after to Wednesday on or before" (66). In the days before motor vehicle headlights, meetings tended to be held with reference to the full moon. Thus, in 1889, out of 352 lodges in the jurisdiction, 247 (or 70%) set their meetings by the moon. (In 1994 one lodge still kept this practice.) Inevitably the D.D.G.M. gains a clearer insight into some of the problems confronting the lodges. In 1893 one of them stated that "my impression is that Lodges would profit by re-electing Masters to a second or third term of office when they succeed in getting a competent Bro. to preside over them" (61). In the Proceedings for 1893, the District reports cover 190 pages. We have mentions of lodges being heavily damaged by fire, at West Lome (68), Port Stanley (100), Thamesford (101), St Thomas (104), Waterford (130), Bradford (159), Port Dalhousie (163), and Sundridge (255). During the year Kivas Tully had addressed the Toronto Past Master's Association, on "Reminiscences of Irish Lodges in Canada;" his talk was printed in full (192-8), as an appendix to the District Deputy's report. One D.D.G.M. commented on the serving of beverages at the hour of refreshment. He had observed no instances of intemperance and excess, and stated, "it is my belief that the practice of prudence and temperance is well observed under the present system of voluntary local option, and would not be improved under any prohibitory enactment" (151). This matter continued to be discussed in later years, until finally, in 1948, the Grand Master, M.W. Bro. T. H. Simpson, issued a directive, stating that "the serving, use or consumption of intoxicants at any function held under Masonic auspices or at any gathering of Craft Masons is prohibited." It remained in effect until M.W. Bro. W. K. Bailey's Directive in 1972, which allowed that "alcoholic beverages may be served in a banquet room or auditorium in Masonic buildings" on certain specific and infrequent occasions. Other ideas as well recur. Several of the reports argue that lodge officers should be elected or installed in June, so that their terms would run concurrently with those of the D.D.G.M.s (170; 236). (The same idea was proposed by the Grand Master in 1988, under the heading "New Ideas.") In recent years we have also heard that it takes a while to become acquainted with the duties of the D.D.G.M., and so he should serve for two years; actually this suggestion was offered in 1893 (245). At one of the official visits, "the meeting was delayed by the unavoidable absence TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 109 of the W.M., . . . who had been unexpectedly called to see a patient, and did not return till nearly 10 p.m. ... On [his] return the third degree was conferred" (122). Other gems from 1893 include the fact that at one lodge the candidate "had come over from Pelee Island in an ice boat" (72). Elsewhere, the meeting was disrupted by "the discordant sounds which emanated from an ill-conducted band," practising in an adjacent room (181). One D.D.G.M. deplored "the old-time habit of playing some practical jokes at the expense of 3rd degree candidates" (96). Other matters mentioned in the reports for this year are the dedication of the Masonic monument in Mount Pleasant Cemetery, Toronto (as part of the Centenary Celebration), and the death of William G. Storm, D.D.G.M. for Toronto in 1861, the architect of the building in which I work (171). In the Proceedings for 1905, the reports cover 260 pages. Virtually every one mentions the local campaigns in support of the Semi-Ceniennial Benevolent Fund. Two years before, the Grand Master, M.W. Bro. J. E. Harding, had proposed that a fund of $100,000 should be raised, to be "kept separate and apart from all other funds of Grand Lodge, and the interest reserved for the special benefit of extreme cases of distress." In 1934 it was amalgamated with the Memorial Fund, which had been raised for the same purpose in connection with the 75th Anniversary. The combined fund is still in existence, with capital of over one million dollars. Problems of transportation continued to plague the District Deputies. One of them was "unable to make train connections", and had to delegate his inspection to another (105). Another reports, "a general blockade of trains existed, and I did not reach the town until about 10 p.m." (150). Or again, "I was sorry I could not wait till the meeting was over, as I was compelled to return by the midnight train" (334). Or again, "About three miles from Milton the train got stuck in a snow bank, and the report was that we would have to stay there till morning" (172). Or on another occasion, the D.D.G.M. travelled on a steam yacht; he arrived at the mouth of a river, about a mile from his destination, at 7.30 p.m. "While trying to make the entrance we ran on a sand bar. There we were forced to remain for some hours. By means of a punt from a neighboring island, I finally succeeded in reaching the lodge room at 10.30 p.m." (343). Even after half a century, there was still trouble in promoting the Canadian ritual. In one district, "the work was of an old type and not in the form authorized and desired by Grand Lodge" (333-4). Several reports indicate that the final charge in the various degrees was still being read out of the Book of Constitution, instead of being delivered from memory (100, 132). And there is mention of a startling innovation that has since become standard. One lodge actually required the candidates "to memorize their obligation before passing from each degree to a higher" (349). There are occasional ironic comments. "I was surprised at the various ways in which it is possible to give the casual signs, as exhibited in this instance" (301). And again, one W.M. was an ordained clergyman, and we are told that he "conferred the E.A. and M.M.'s degrees in an impressive manner, showing familiarity with his subject, but like nearly all brethren who follow his calling in life, expressed his knowledge of it to a considerable extent in his own language" (308). 110 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION The D.D.G.M. continued to offer wise advice. One lodge conferred a total of sixty- five degrees during the year. "So much degree work has presented itself during the past year as to turn what should be a pleasure into toil and late hours" (299). Again, "The initiation fee should be raised from $30 to $50 or even $60. Freemasonry is too cheap" (312). And again, "banquets are a mistake unless indeed instructive addresses are given" (313). On one occasion, a lodge presented Past Masters' jewels to three brethren, and only four months later to four more. The D.D.G.M. complained that "handing out these jewels in shovelfuls leaves a bad impression on the mind, is liable to create a wrongful idea of the value of this rank for young members, and probably lead them to believe that no matter what their conduct may be on attaining the P.M. rank, they will get a jewel" (303). There are mentions of several brethren who achieved distinction outside the Craft: Rev. David Williams, [M, 1859-1931], of Stratford Lodge, No 332, Bishop of Huron, and later Metropolitan of Ontario (123); and Hon. James Sutherland (CM, 1849-1905), of Oxford Lodge, No 76, Federal Minister of Public Works (146). In 1919 about fifteen of the reports mention the influenza epidemic. This year saw a tremendous influx of new members. One lodge received 43 applications for initiation and 9 for affiliation at one meeting (102); another had 61 initiations and 11 affiliations during the year (165). Once again, we have mentions of notable Masons: Joseph E. Armstrong, M.P. for Lambton East, known as the Father of Rural Mail Delivery in Canada (106), and Hon. Gideon Decker Robertson (CM, 1874-1933), Federal Minister of Labour (208). One other interesting feature of this year's Proceedings is the publication of the Honour Roll (315-331), indicating that 7396 brethren from this jurisdiction had served in the armed forces during the Great War, and listing the names of 560 that had made the Supreme Sacrifice. In 1927 the musical ritual is mentioned frequently. One D.D.G.M. suggested that "more interest might be kindled in lodge if the musical ritual were used in working the degrees" (144). (The Masonic Musical Ritual had been published "early in 1918.") We may be relieved that one custom seems to have passed out of favour since 1927. That year, in one district, there was a joint Installation and investiture for four lodges (135); in another, there was a joint installation for ten lodges (163). One D.D.G.M. in 1927 provided good advice. "I would strongly recommend the raising of the annual dues so that the lodge would not have to depend on the initiation fee to pay the running expenses. I am afraid that, owing to lack of funds, there is sometimes a tendency to admit men who will not ultimately reflect honour on our choice" (115). Another suggested that poor attendance was due in part to "uninteresting entertainment at our banquets," where there were "too many unnecessary addresses by Past Masters and Ruling Masters" (277). Notable Masons mentioned include Right Rev. Charles Allen Seager (M, 1872-1948), of Ionic Lodge, No 25, Bishop of Ontario, and later Metropolitan of Ontario (135), and Dr Lome Pierce (MC, 1890-1961), of Harmony Lodge, No 379, a distinguished author and editor (241). TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1 995 111 In the reports for 1939, one D.D.G.M. observed that the attendance was better "when some special educational topic was a feature than when degree work only was the order of business" (106). Another pointed out that "short informative talks are very much desired by the brethren, but they are very impatient with masonic talks that go far beyond what they are able to comprehend or appreciate" (197). The same volume of the Proceedings mentions the death of William H. Shaw (1858-1939), who in 1892 had founded the Shaw Business Schools of Toronto (263); he had been D.D.G.M. for Toronto West in 1907. According to the reports for 1945, in the months following the conclusion of the war in Europe, there were still gasoline restrictions and rationing of tires (120, 131). This naturally curtailed activities. On one occasion, the guest speaker was unable to attend, because the Department of Transport had cancelled all civilian reservations (149). We are told that "Masters are opening their lodges on time, using programs and timetables with the desired result of closing the lodges between 11.00 and 1 1.30 p.m." (154). One report gave the strange advice that "each lodge be urged to appoint a Historian" (178). Likewise in 1945, a number of districts announced that they had made donations on behalf of a lodge in the north country. It turned out that, the year before, the Grand Master had explained that the lodge was in bad shape financially, and was on the point of losing its premises. The brethren of Ontario came through with flying colours. They paid off the amount that was owing to Grand Lodge, discharged the mortgage, put a new roof on the building, and provided substantial funds for rehab- ilitation and redecoration. This is just a brief sample of the fascinating information that may be gleaned from the published reports. For the last twenty-five years, when no detailed reports were generally available, we have not been privileged to learn such details. The actual reports are, I believe, in the offices of Grand Lodge. It might be useful, and would certainly be entertaining, for some volunteers to go through these, and prepare annual summaries, of a somewhat more event-oriented sort than the Report on the Condition of Masonry. All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted. WALLACE McLEOD Grand Historian 112 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CONSTITUTION AND JURISPRUDENCE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. T. Runciman, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Runciman, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Your committee has received for its consideration a Notice of Motion the effect of which, if passed, would grant to District Deputy Grand Masters the authority to grant dispensations for holding or taking part in Lodges of Instruction, District Divine Services and public Remembrance Day Services. Since dispensations for Lodges of Instruction are presently provided for in S-102 of the Book of Constitution, this report will only consider the two remaining matters. Historically, the power to grant dispensations has rested with the Grand Master as one of his prerogatives. The Book of Constitution, in S-143, clearly states that no public procession of brethren as Masons, except for a Masonic Memorial Service, can take place without the dispensation of the Grand Master. Research indicates that there was a time in the early history of our Grand Lodge that this exception only applied when the situation was so urgent that the Grand Master or the District Deputy Grand Master could not be contacted in a timely manner. Now, however, there are no qualifications to this exception. It would appear that this exception was originally based on urgency due to time constraints and eventually became absolute because of the number of requests for dispensations. Your committee is of the opinion that there is usually considerable lead time in planning and organizing the events contemplated in the proposed amendment, and in this era of rapid communication urgency is not an issue. Based on information received from the office of the Grand Secretary, the number of requests for dispen- sations is not so excessive as to put additional pressure on the staff. Your committee also appreciates, with reference to a parade or public procession, that if you are not the organizer or leader you do not have very much, if any, control over the procession. Based on past experience the Grand Master or the Grand Secretary may be aware of situations which would prompt them to ask very pertinent questions. The District Deputy Grand Master, not having this experience, may grant a dispensation which in hindsight should have been more carefully scrutinized. In conclusion, your committee respectfully submits that the complete transfer of these powers to the District Deputy Grand Master is a derogation of the historical and traditional powers of the Grand Master which cannot be sustained on the basis of urgency or volume of requests for dispensations. Your committee, therefore, concludes TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 113 that the proposed amendment is not regular. All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the committee. R. T. RUNCIMAN Chairman REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PUBLIC RELATIONS This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. S. R. Whiteley, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Whiteley, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Most Worshipful Sir, it is a privilege to present this report on behalf of the members of the Grand Lodge Committee on Public Relations - R.W. Bros. Clarence Bell, Thomas Crowley, Donald Mumby, David Patterson, Michael Rogozynski, David Sheen, Alvin Smith; V.W. Bros. Bob Bailey, Thomas Hansen and W. Bro. Michael Brellisford, and the undersigned as chairman. Your chairman wishes to acknowledge their dedication, contribution and support during this Masonic year. Coupled with the many proposals and recommendations received from our membership, the committee have been able to achieve their mandate: "To create a greater public perception of Freemasonry in our community." The thrust of the Grand Lodge Public Relations Committee in the 1994-95 Masonic year has been primarily in the following areas: 1. The Masonic Information Booth 2. The Widow's Brooch 3. The Updating and Refinement of the Open House Program 4. The Co-Ordination of Requirements Relative to the International Plowing Match 5. The Public Relations Seminar Programme The Masonic Information Display Exhibit The introduction of the new, Canadian manufactured modular portable Masonic Information Display Exhibit is extremely versatile. The multi-configuration is designed to provide a total system that will meet all the requirements of the different venues in which it will be employed, i.e. the Lodge Room, Open Houses, Community Groups, Indoor Shopping Centres, Fall Fairs, International Plowing Match etc. 114 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION The exhibit system, 10' wide x 8' high, adapts into a 10' x 10' square format for display purposes, can also be reduced to accommodate 4' x 8', 6' x 8', 4' x 4', 4' x 10', 4' x 8' configuration equipped with back lighting, two (2) case to table units. The Masonic Information Display Exhibit will reinforce our commitment to a first class quality presentation. The graphics offer an uncluttered simplicity and convey a Masonic philosophy that is timeless in our Grand Jurisdiction. The marketing of the Masonic Information Display Exhibit will be executed in two separated phases. Each of our newly elected District Deputy Grand Masters will receive a presentation kit at the Annual Grand Lodge Communication. A like presentation kit will be forwarded to every lodge in our Grand Jurisdiction prior to September 1, 1995. Please accept our invitation to visit the Masonic Information Display Exhibit at the Annual Grand Lodge Communication. Personnel from the Grand Lodge Public Relations Committee will be in attendance to answer questions and confirm reservations relative to this exciting new communications vehicle. The Widow's Brooch Responding to the recommendations of our membership, the Grand Lodge of Canada A.F. & AM. in the Province of Ontario have endorsed the new Masonic Widow's Brooch. The new Masonic Widow's Brooch, designed by Canadians as an emblem to reflect a symbol of our continued concern and honour the widow of a brother Mason. Crafted by Lee's of Hamilton, the new Masonic Widow's Brooch reflects the skilled craftsmanship and the tradition of quality this Canadian manufacturer has employed since 1886. To compliment the moment of presentation to our widows and perfectly portray the importance of the new Masonic Widow's Brooch, a royal blue etched with gold presentation kit is included with every Brooch. The presentation kit is complete with a printed message for the respective widow, coupled with an explanation of the design. There is no substitute for quality, and the benchmark of quality is synonymous with Freemasonry. We sincerely believe the new Masonic Widow's Brooch comes with the assurance that it will meet the highest expectations of our brethren in this Grand Jurisdiction. The recipient will cherish forever this beautiful piece of jewellery and the honour bestowed upon her in recognition of a dedicated brother Mason, a member of your Masonic Lodge. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 115 The Grand Lodge Committee on Public Relations have produced an information kit relative to the Widow's Brooch. A copy of same will be forwarded to every Masonic Lodge in our Grand Jurisdiction. Consistent with our policy of communication, each newly elected District Deputy Grand Master will receive a copy of the information kit at the Annual Grand Lodge Communication. The Open House Programme The Open House Programme continues to be one of the most successful vehicles promoting a favourable public perception of Freemasonry in our community. As in previous years, there are multiple articles, chronicled and documented to be shared within our Grand Jurisdiction. It is our experience that the lodge who plan their work five to six months in advance, and work their plan, are triumphant in attaining a very favourable conclusion to their planned event. With the introduction of the "Friend to Friend" programme, several of our lodges have chosen to incorporate the programme into their Open House Programme. Affirming this concept, R.W. Bro. Harvey Street, D.D.G.M. Georgian South District, under the auspices of Kempenfeldt Lodge No. 673, Barrie, is to be congratulated for his endeavours to ensure an outstanding and rewarding evening, conceived to create a greater understanding of our Fraternity within the community. The International Plowing Match For eighty-two years the International Plowing Match has provided the agricultural community with an occasion to come together to test skills and techniques in competition, to exhibit the latest technology and to celebrate the tradition of rural living and farming in Ontario. Your chairman wishes to acknowledge with sincere appreciation the contribution and commitment made by R.W. Bro. Wally Hightower and the brethren of Ottawa Districts 1 and 2 during the four-day extravaganza held in Pembroke, Ontario, in September, 1994. One thousand acres of magnificent Waterloo region will be turned into a new dimension in 1995. This year the streets and avenues will form the curves and spokes of a wagon wheel - a Conestoga wagon wheel! Its a new dimension that will entertain, inform and educate. The Masons of Waterloo District, under the leadership of R.W. Bro. Colin Heap, W. Bro. Norman Bobier, Co-chairman, and "The Waterloo Team" will host the Masonic exhibit for this great International event. You are invited to experience the past, see the future and feel the pride September 19-23, 1995, in Ayr, Ontario. This year your Grand Lodge is the recipient of a most generous endowment in the form of a Display Tent, 20' x 40' in size, in our corporate colours of blue and white. 116 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION In recognition of this contribution, may I as your chairman present a motion of gratitude to the benefactor, R.W. Bro. Edward Hensler, P.D.D.G.M. Bruce District. The Public Relations Seminar Programme In this Masonic year, members of the Grand Lodge Committee on Public Relations and your chairman participated in five Public Relations Seminars held in Hamilton, Peterborough, Sioux Lookout, Thunder Bay and Toronto. Your committee wishes to acknowledge the many suggestions and recommen- dations expressed by the brethren attending the seminars, several of which have been incorporated into creating a greater awareness of Freemasonry in Ontario. In conclusion, your chairman is indebted to the District Deputy Grand Masters and Grand Lodge, in particular the Grand Secretary, M.W. Bro. R. E. Davies, and members of his staff, for their contribution and support. S. R. WHITELEY Chairman Respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee. CALLED OFF Grand Lodge adjourned at 11:45 a.m. CALLED ON Grand Lodge resumed labour at 1:15 p.m. REPORT OF THE GRAND CHAPLAIN This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. David Wilkinson, Grand Chaplain. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: The Grand Master appointed me Grand Chaplain of the Province of Ontario which one can only cover a small area of the same. Nevertheless, that title alone made me aware of the extreme privilege of being honoured in such a special way. The majority of the members of our cherished Fraternity will only know the Grand Chaplain by name and that albeit in a year that passes all too soon to accomplish all you had intended. What was accomplished, however, is to be hoped that the quality our Grand Master was imparting was present in some measure from myself as Grand Chaplain. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 117 I have made many new friends and renewed past friendships through my visits to various districts in the province and, as always, visiting strengthens the bond among us. Receptions for the Grand Master were always a highlight of the year and many anniversaries were celebrated. All of these were, of course, followed by an equal number of well prepared banquets. I must say that each of the occasions I attended were a credit to the individual lodges and their respective District Deputy Grand Masters, and memorable was the fact that a full house was the standard response from all the brethren. The Grand Master, M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew and his wife Ellen-Orr were present on those occasions as were the ladies of our Grand Lodge Officers. The presence of the ladies made our celebrations doubly rewarding and a "Thank You" from all of us. Your thoughtfulness was appreciated in that regard. The Annual Divine Service for the seven Toronto Districts was well attended and my thanks for the support given on that October evening, my first appearance as Grand Chaplain. Our thanks to Trinity Presbyterian Church for their hospitality and to Rev. Gordon A. Beaton for his co-operation and contribution. The following Divine Services were held at the following locations and occasions — Fallingbrook Presbyterian Church in celebration of the 75th Anniversary of Antiquity Lodge, District 7. In addition, a Waterloo District Divine Service held at St. Luke's United Church, Cambridge and at Zion-Wexford United Church, Scarborough, for the Divine Service for District 4. Zion-Wexford is the Church which your Grand Chaplain has been serving since October, 1994, till the present time and ending official service in mid-August 1995. Two Memorial Services were conducted, one Funeral Service and one Building Dedication at Sundridge. As a member of the Condition of Masonry Committee, I have been made aware of the amount of work accomplished by the District Deputy Grand Masters. This has been a good year for our Fraternity in Ontario and, with the leadership of the Grand Master and support of the Grand Lodge Officers and most certainly the favourable response of each and every brother to the leadership, culminated in a year of much promise for the future of Masonry. In closing, may I be permitted to use my theme expression for my year and challenge you in your continued endeavours within and without the Fraternity. My theme question was, when you can say, "On this one thing I am absolutely certain," and that one thing is worthy of your attention, your time and talents, is of good report, tried and trusty and a benefit to yourself and beyond yourself, then you have a purpose and a message for the society and community in which you live and indeed for the world. 118 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION Therefore, treasure your Masonic tradition, celebrate it, share it and encourage others by your quality of Masonry to the service of God, Ruler and Master of us all! Fraternal greetings. God Bless. DAVID WILKINSON Grand Chaplain REPORT ON THE MASONIC FOUNDATION OF ONTARIO To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: As President of the Masonic Foundation of Ontario and on behalf of its Board of Directors, it is my privilege to present this report at the Thirty-second Annual Meeting at the Royal York Hotel, Tuesday, July 18, 1995. I am indebted to the Chairmen and Board Members of the various committees for providing detailed reports, which I will summarize. Introduction The past year, as President of your Masonic Foundation, has proved to be a challenging experience. The first priority was to restore a quality relationship of Grand Lodge and the Masonic Foundation. To achieve this goal, meetings were held with distinguished Masons to establish the selection process. Both worked in concert to develop a means by which to identify those best qualified to serve as members of the Board of Directors. Meetings were held with M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew, Grand Master, M.W. Bro. Norman E. Byrne, P.G.M., R.W. Bro. Durward I. Greenwood, Deputy Grand Master, and our Grand Secretary, M.W. Bro. R. E. Davies, representing Grand Lodge, together with R.W. Bro. James T. Cassie and myself representing our Masonic Foundation. A consensus was developed for the creation of new bylaws that would provide for the restructuring of the members of the Board of Directors and the nominating process. I am indebted to H. N. Britton, J. T. Cassie, A. F. Rodger and, in particular, H. A. Leal for their valued assistance in the preparation of this proposal for presentation to the membership. Acknowledgment It is appropriate that we should remember with gratitude those Directors who have served and retired from the Board in July, 1994, and those who are to retire in July, 1995. Each has given extensively of his energy, time and talents to structure a strong, positive future for our Foundation. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 119 Our sincere thanks are extended, for a job well done, to: Norman E. Byrne, Jack Moore, Dr Alan N. Newell, Dr N. Richard Richards, E. James Scarborough, C. John Woodburn. We respectfully submit this report on behalf of the Board of Directors. T. JOHN ARTHUR President REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON MASONIC EDUCATION This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. R. A. Barnett, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Barnett, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: On behalf of your Grand Lodge Committee on Masonic Education, it is my privilege to present this report to this 140th Communication of our Grand Lodge. Your committee is unanimous in its appreciation of all the work that has been done by the District and Lodge Chairmen of Masonic Education. It is by their dedication and continued efforts that the greatest numbers of opportunities for Masonic Education are made available each year to Masons in every lodge and district. This year saw many examples of the continued success of long established district programmes as well as successful new initiatives. We salute all those who worked to provide Masonic Education this year. There are three ongoing programmes that are in the care of this committee; the Correspondence Course, the Quarterly Newsletter publication and the promotion of the Toastmaster's Speechcraft Dynamics course. THE CORRESPONDENCE COURSE This year saw the changing of the guard for this successful and growing programme. The Correspondence Course began in 1983 under the chairmanship of (then) R.W. Bro. Bill Pellow with M.W. Bro. N. R. Richards and (then) R.W. Bro. David Bradley as co-chairmen of curriculum, and R.W. Bros. Frank Bruce and Edsel Steen as co-administrators. On December 15, 1994, Edsel Steen, the last to retire of the original team that established the course, did so after eleven faithful years as Course Administrator. R.W. Bro. Steen has been an untiring champion of the course and it survives and continues to grow today because of his efforts. At the Chatham District Reception in March, our Grand Master presented R.W. Bro. Steen with a special commendation for his contributions to the Craft. Our Grand Master is well 120 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION aware of the work by R.W. Bro. Steen, his assistant, R.W. Bro. Peter Polkinghorne (also retiring), and the course mentors who receive, review and return "student" papers through the Course Administrator. All of the present committee have enjoyed working with R.W. Bros. Steen and Polkinghorne and we offer our heartfelt "well done." I am happy to report that with the help of R.W. Bro. Ted Peters, that a new Course Administrator and a co-administrator have been recruited and that the work of getting all course materials updated and on disk and a new data base for course subscribers is well underway. V.W. Bro. Syd Lowe and Bro. Larry Fitchett, both from London, both retired, and both very dedicated to their roles as administrators have joined the Grand Lodge Masonic Education team to ensure continuity of the Correspondence Course programme. Some statistics on the Correspondence Course: From September, 1993, to December 15, 1994, total student enrolment was 1,227 and they accounted for 1,723 courses. Since December 15, 1994, 88 courses have been mailed out to brethren representing 28 different districts. Since December 15, 1994, 27 certificates have been mailed to 12 District Deputy Grand Masters for presentation to successful "students" in their respective districts. Our course materials continue to be requested from outside of our jurisdiction and, so far this year, have been sent to the Grand Lodges of both Manitoba and The Bahamas. The courses represent an important Masonic Education opportunity and we have been most fortunate in the calibre of those who established it in 1983, those who have maintained it over the years, and those who are now moving it along to better handle the increased enrolment and today's necessity for instant updates and faster response times. Finally, our thanks to R.W. Bro. Terry Shand and the editorial team of the "Ontario Mason" for including information about the Correspondence Course in that publication. THE QUARTERLY "NEWSLETTER" Vol. 14, No. 1 was mailed on schedule but No. 2 and No. 3 were delayed and were sent out together in May. Subsequent issues should continue on schedule. The kind words and encouragement from the brethren are appreciated and the sales of the hard bound editions at Grand Lodge and the growing subscribers list continues to show support for this effort. The first issue of "Newsletter" was published in January, 1981. The programme was guided by (then) R.W. Bros. Wallace McLeod and David Bradley. The present "crew" has been involved since 1986. The current effort to get all back issues on disk and also a complete index is well on the way to completion. Both the Correspondence Course and the Quarterly Newsletter are stand alone projects and are completely self supporting. The present fee of $20.00 per course (four courses total) for the Correspondence Course, and the annual Newsletter (four quarterly issues) fee of $12.00 appears to be adequate for at least another year, as does the $15.00 each cost for the Newsletter annual hard bound edition. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 121 TOASTM ASTER'S "SPEECHCRAFT DYNAMICS" COURSE Each year your committee liaison with Toastmasters. W. Bro. Howard Tosh has provided a list of Toastmaster Chapter locations in Ontario, along with contact names and addresses and telephone numbers. These lists are provided to each District Deputy Grand Master and for each District Chairman of Masonic Education. The course consists of eight approximately two-hour sessions. Costs are modest and depend upon meeting space (lodge room ?). There have been only very positive comments from those who have participated in the "Speechcraft Dynamics" programme. It is well recognized in the business world as a top notch training and self improvement vehicle and it is easily available where there are Toastmaster Chapters close by. Some districts participate each year - others arrange on an "as needed basis" - none have regretted the effort and all have had high praise for the results. Your committee was pleased to be a part of the Grand Lodge Workshop programme and participated in the very enjoyable "Northern Exposure" trip to Sioux Lookout and Thunder Bay, and also the session in Hamilton. This spring saw this committee launch another three-year schedule of D.D.G.M./District Secretary Travelling Workshops under the guidance of R.W. Bro. Murray Wagg, who organized the last very successful three-year series which ran until June, 1993. This new series started this March in Toronto and visited Brockville at the end of May. There are two more workshops being planned for this fall and this series will cover, by regions, all forty-six districts in the next two and one-half years. Our special thanks to R.W. Bros. Bert Bell and Len Witham who are the instructors for this series of workshops, and to M.W. Bro. D. Bradley and R.W. Bro. Ted Peters who offer experienced backup "bench strength" for these workshops when called upon. This report will not attempt to catalogue the travels and participation of individual members of this committee in various lodge and district Masonic Education events throughout the Masonic year. I will only say to you Grand Master, that it has been my distinct pleasure to work on this committee of dedicated brethren who volunteer so much of their time and efforts to the benefit of the whole Craft. Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the committee: M.W. Bro. D. C. Bradley; R.W. Bros. D. H. Mumby, E. Peters, P. Polkinghorne, J. W. Reid, B. K. Schweitzer, R. South, E. C. Steen, J. M. Wagg; V.W. Bro. D. R. Fick; W. Bros. W. R. Carr, H. Tosh, Wm White. R. A. BARNETT Chairman 122 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON AUDIT AND FINANCE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. S. H. Cohen, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Cohen, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: The Committee on Audit and Finance of Grand Lodge has reviewed and considered the reports of the Grand Treasurer, the Auditor's Report and the report of the Grand Secretary as referred to in this Annual Communication. These reports fully and accurately record the information pertaining to: (a) The financial position of this Grand Lodge as at April 30th, 1995, and the results of its operations for the year under review. (b) Details of all Receipts and Expenditures with respect to the General Fund, the Segregated Funds and the Special Programme Fund; together with particulars of all transactions and changes in Capital Accounts of Grand Lodge which have occurred during the year ended April 30th, 1995. (c) The Investment Accounts of the above-mentioned Funds and the summary of the financial position as at April 30th, 1995. The following comments with respect to certain matters covered by these reports are presented for your consideration. (1) The Annual Statement of the financial position of Grand Lodge reflects a total of the Fund Balances for the year ended April 30, 1995, of $4,028,215, compared to $3,826,936 the previous year, summarized as follows: 1995 1994 General Fund $1,895,784 $1,822,837 Segregated Funds 1,860,170 1,779,989 Special Programme Fund 272,261 224,110 Total $4,028,215 $3,826,936 The increase in these funds of $201,279 can be attributed primarily to the successful operation of Grand Lodge for the year under review. (2) The Statement of Revenue and Expenses of the General Fund reflects net earnings of $72,947 which includes an amount of $26,454 as a contribution from the Special Programme Fund towards Grand Lodge expenses. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 123 (3) Grants for benevolent purposes for the year amounted to $82,390, compared to $82,510 the previous year. The report of the Chairman of Benevolence appears elsewhere in these proceedings and documents the policies and work of that committee. The Committee on Audit and Finance commends the excellent work done by the Committee on Benevolence and the good judgement used in their deliberations. The Audit and Finance Committee received from the Management Committee the budgetary requirements of all Grand Lodge Committees for the coming year, which were carefully considered in preparing the Annual Budget for the year ended April 30, 1996, which amounted to $22,000. The budget for the General Fund for the coming year is set out in the appendix to this report, which reflects anticipated receipts of $610,000 and expenditures of $604,000, resulting in a budgeted surplus of $6,000. Once again, a budget for the Special Programme Fund has been prepared, which is set out in the appendix attached to this report, reflecting budgeted expenditures of $124,755 from this Fund. The operating budget and the special programme budget were prepared on a line by line examination based on the actual results of the previous year and having regard to the needs of Grand Lodge to facilitate desirable and meaningful programmes. We are pleased to report that a total of $189,411 has already been disbursed on special programmes since the inception of the fund three years ago. As reported by the Grand Treasurer, the Committee on Audit and Finance meets with Cassels Blaikie on a quarterly basis to review our investment portfolio and we are pleased with the results shown to date. We recommend their continuing engagement to manage our investment portfolio. In accordance with Section 134C of the Constitution, your committee submits for consideration and approval, as set out below, an estimate of the receipts and disbursements as they relate to the General Fund for the year ending April 30, 1996. Your committee believes the budget of the General Fund as set out in this report is realistic and provides for items which can be reasonably foreseen to meet the obligations, financial responsibilities and commitments of the General Fund of Grand Lodge for the current year. As chairman of the Audit and Finance Committee, I particularly want to express my thanks and appreciation to the Grand Treasurer, to the Grand Secretary and the Grand Lodge staff for their work and assistance to this committee. I also wish to extend my appreciation to the members of this committee for their interest and involvement in the management of the financial affairs of this Grand Lodge. Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the committee. SAMUEL H.

We had a display at the plowing match this year in Pembroke, and a "thank you" to the Ottawa Districts for their support. The Blood Donor buttons that were introduced last year have proven very successful and are worn proudly by many Masons in our jurisdiction. With many brethren now donating platelets on a regular basis, we have found it necessary to increase the seals on the certificates to cover 250 and 300 donations. Packages have been distributed to the District Deputies with guidelines for a District Blood Donor Chairman. We were very fortunate to have the talents of V.W. Bro. Ted Burns on our committee, who looked after the artwork on our certificates. We congratulate the brethren of the Windsor District for their strong support. Although the total donations were down from last year, R.W. Bro. Seal reported they TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 129 ranked fifth in the community as a blood donor group) — following behind Ford, Chrysler, General Motors and the University of Windsor. Some districts have trophies or special awards that are presented to the lodge with the greatest percentage increase (good idea!). In this year of controversy with regard to the tainted blood scandal, the position of the Red Cross is that they are not getting out of the blood collection business, and they need our support (in this time of needed donations) more than ever. I wish to thank M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew for the opportunity of serving on this team of dedicated Masons, and R.W. Bro. Ken Whiting for making the upper board room available for our meetings. Respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee. R. D. SUMMERVILLE Chairman REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE CONDITION OF MASONRY This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. A. R. Burgess, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Burgess, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Thank you for the privilege of working with and presenting the report on the Condition of Masonry on behalf of the following dedicated committee members: R.W. Bros. J. E. Anderson, R. G. Bingham, G. R. Brittain, G. H. Hazlitt, F. K Hyatt, A R. Hutt, C. M. Miller, D. H. Mumby, R. E. Oliver and D.Wilkinson. Our mandate is: "To review the annual reports of the District Deputy Grand Masters and to make recommendations arising therefrom for the benefit of the Craft; and, To study the condition or state of Masonry in general throughout the jurisdiction and to make recommendations for the benefit of the Craft." SO WHAT'S HAPPENING When we look across our 648 lodges we see some patterns of concern and erosion. Most districts report a diminishing membership. This means fewer hands to do the work and cover the costs. The average age is increasing with more Past Masters recycled in the chairs. Last year alone we lost 2,900 brethren from our roles. The sad thing is we lost over 2,500 of our membership due to suspensions and demits. 130 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION It is evident from these statistics that more and more lodges require better planning both in programme and finances. Whenever we have found a lodge in what we believe is financial difficulty we have notified the Lodge Finance Committee. Unfortunately it is a very awkward situation sometimes. The treasurer doesn't see a problem, the secretary considers an offer of help, interference; and the Master prays the hornets nest isn't disturbed at least not in his year. There is no doubt that our blood donations are going to be considerably reduced this year. Why? — Fewer members can find the time due to business pressures. — Our age factor again is showing up. — Due to licensing problems and change in regulating bodies blood products now come under the jurisdiction of a) the Blood Services Agency; b) the Canadian Red Cross; and c) the Food and Drug Act. Because we do not have our own Canadian fractionalization plants we send the plasma to the United States to be processed and returned. Now we must be licensed to meet the U.S.A. criteria plus our own regulation standards. As a result many centres have eliminated or reduced their pheresis plasma programmes and donors. Look at lodge buildings — they may be getting older but not necessarily better. If you start to renovate, new building codes are in effect and costs escalate. As a result many jobs are put off and maintenance costs get higher and higher. Temple boards should budget preventative maintenance cost for the future. Enough doom and gloom. Let's look at the Condition of Masonry from the SUNNY SIDE of the street. Never before in the history of our Grand Lodge have we had so many programmes for the benefit of the brethren. Most of our Grand Lodge programmes are now adequately funded due to the foresight and intestinal fortitude of M.W. Bro. Norman E. Byrne who established the means through the label and calendar programmes, and the brethren have shown their support with their generous donations. Look what we are harvesting from the funds made available . . . Hie Ontario Mason magazine communicating at all levels. The workshops that allow you to receive updated information at minimal personal cost and your lodge benefits both financially and in knowledge. Friend to Friend video — a first class production that destroys the "whisper club" image. Grand Lodge now has a display booth and just recently a 20 x 40 tent was donated by R.W. Bro. Ted Hensler for fall fairs, ploughing matches, etc. Similarly, we are improving our Mentors Programme for the benefit of the brethren. The Computer Resources Committee continues to assist lodges and districts bit by bit with programmes and the BBS system. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 131 Our benevolence programme continues to provide over $80,000 a year to those brethren in need, worthy of our Masonic charity. Nor does it stop there - many recipients are assisted by direction to proper provincial agencies, financial counselling groups etc by this dedicated committee. Masonic Districts are providing a multitude of fantastic projects showing Masonic Care for the Community - for example: Toronto District 3 is buying another van for a paraplegic brother. Toronto District 6 is buying and training a seeing eye guide dog. Not only does this dog direct his blind owner but he helps the person get in and out of bed, fetches food etc. Hamilton Districts A, B, C Walkathon for the Neo-Natal Clinic. Masonic Hockey Team vs NHL Oldtimers for charitable purposes. London Districts William Mercer Wilson Centre Seniors Apartment. Sarnia District Ball Game to assist St. Francis Advocates autistic children. Waterloo District buying and training a seeing eye dog. The Masonic Foundation spending over three hundred and seventy thousand dollars this past year for hearing research, Autism and Voice programmes, Youth and Drug prevention and for post secondary education bursaries. All this, and more, makes one "PROUD TO BE A MASON !" During the past year our committee has met six times, plus many subcommittee meetings and from its deliberations we propose the following recommendations for consideration. 1. A review of our election system and the difficulty on how to make it fair and equitable without detracting from our superior Grand Lodge Annual Com- munication was considered. Should we continue 1 man — 1 vote, or should cost and distance to Grand Lodge play a more important role: e.g. 10 ballots for a distance over 600 km. Your committee has made a recommendation to the Deputy Grand Master for his consideration. Recommend: That future nomination listings be of the present format with the deletion of the brother's age and the addition of: a) A recent photograph; b) Names of Grand Lodge Committees served on c/w number of years of service. Recommend: That a candidate listed on the Grand Lodge Ballot, after the completion of the Annual Communication, may upon written request receive his election results from the Grand Secretary. 2. D.D.G.M. reports - a system of reducing the quantity while maintaining the report quality has been discussed, debated, reviewed and recycled. A proposed format for July, 1995, has been forwarded to the Management Committee and the Deputy Grand Master for approval and adoption. Recommend: That the proposed D.D.G.M. report format be adopted. 132 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION 3. Many lodges no longer have an organist or a musical instrument to assist with lodge ceremonies. Recommend: That an audio tape be recorded (both vocal and instrumental) to assist lodge brethren in adding music to their ritual and other special functions. 4. Many lodge members are being suspended for nonpayment of dues or taking demits. Recommend: That a visitation committee be formed in each lodge that will visit all members within a 25 mile radius and where not feasible that a letter be sent by the Master requesting an update of the brother's circumstances (who, what, why, when and where) to be published. 5. Finances — many lodges do not have a sound dues structure, a finance committee, or a contingency fund for maintenance etc. Recommend: That the D.D.G.M. provide assistance for the Lodge Treasurers in seeking financial advice from the Grand Lodge Committee on Lodge Finances. 6. Many lodges and districts continue to hide the light of their community charitable work under the Masonic bushel. Recommend: That within the bounds of good taste that we actively seek good publicity to show Masonry in action. 7. Many lodges have picked up on the Mentor's Programme; however, some lodges continue to leave the candidate to fend for himself, especially after he has received the third degree. Recommend: That the Mentor's Programme be encouraged — that brethren be given the information to read and then subsequent discussion take place at the earliest convenience. 8. We congratulate many lodges that are improving their lodge summons, adding lodge and district newsletters. Recommend: That this practice continue (with readable print) and that lodges encourage talented brethren, who are not in the chairs, to assist in the formation of a newsletter team. 9. Recommend: That Lodges of Instruction be held in each district, promoting ritual with emphasis and meaning ! ! ! MEMORIZED by heart and head - NOT READ ! 10. Although protocol information is available in "The Manual" and "Meeting the Challenge," in a few lodges and districts there is a tendency where informality and lack of decorum have become the norm. Recommend: That Masonic Protocol both in lodge and at the banquet hour be reviewed and promoted. 11. Recommend: That lodges consider more educational programmes of short TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 133 duration. The subjects need not always be Masonic but could be of the Liberal Arts and Science in today's world. 12. Recommend: That Past Masters become mentors to lodge officers — not tormentors — early in the officers career. Helping him to plan for the Master's chair financially and mentally, with a programme plan for his consideration. 13. Recommend: That "all aspects of the Friend to Friend programme be utilized not only for prospective applicants but for "active when it suits" and nonactive members as well. (See also No. 4) 14. Unfortunately Masonry is missing some good strong leaders due to timing, who have a great deal of talent and expertise. Recommend: That those districts that elect their District Deputies on a rotational basis consider implementing a semi-rotational system: e.g. 14 lodges in a district — seven years after the lodge has had a D.D.G.M. it would be eligible to actively seek an election of a qualified brother. Brotherly competition promotes more active participation and better programmes. Finally, we are encouraged by the resurgence of young, interested and enthusiastic candidates in many of our lodges. We believe this will reverse the downward trend of membership and strengthen our beloved Craft. We congratulate and commend the District Deputies, their District Secretaries and District Team for their dedication, devotion and fraternal leadership throughout our jurisdiction. You have been the eyes and ears of our Grand Master, promoting the precepts and programmes, rendering comfort and relief, and providing stability and direction to the brethren. For elevating and encouraging our Craft towards "TOTAL QUALITY MASONRY," WE SALUTE YOU! In Ontario, there are many trees in the forest. Some trees are in a state of decay, some have mature growth and some are bursting with new life. So it is with Masonry. Let there be Light! Respectfully submitted on behalf of the committee. R. J. McKIBBON Chairman REPORT OF THE COMPUTER RESOURCES COMMITTEE This Report was presented by V.W. Bro. N. G. McCarthy, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by V.W. Bro. McCarthy, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge AF. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: It is my privilege to present the fourth annual report on the activities of the Computer Resources Committee. 134 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION From its inception, this committee has had two primary objectives: • to provide assistance to those lodges wishing to computerize their records and administration. . to promote the use of "PC FILE 5.01 - MEMBERSHIP PROGRAMME" which is totally compatible with the Grand Lodge data base. In support of the former, members have been active participants in a number of district and regional workshops. In addition, presentations and computer demon- strations have been made at three seminars held in conjunction with our Grand Lodge Annual Communications. We have used these opportunities to show participants the ease of using the Membership Programme which is a computer data base. At the recommendation of users, there have been a number of modifications including: • an update 'field' to reflect the date of a record update, • expanded telephone number 'field' to accommodate extra digits for modem dialling, • added 'fields' for DUES_PAID, ARREARS, and LEDGER_NO to allow for dues record keeping, • extended the postal code 'field' for foreign postal codes. Further amendments to this programme provide a REPORT FORMAT to allow for a comprehensive report printout regarding members dues. The installation procedure has been revised to make it easier. The most recent edition is 3.12. The committee is pleased to report that there are now over two hundred copies of the membership programme in the hands of various lodge members. Our computerized Masonic Bulletin Board System (BBS) continues to be available using the telephone number (416) 438-9303. As this number is now only accessible in the Toronto area as a local call we have requested that Grand Lodge support our funding request for expanded service through London Telecom. Accessors to the BBS will be expected to complete a questionnaire on screen, to safeguard the system from unauthorized persons. When this is completed and the responses evaluated, the users will be allowed into the Bulletin Board, usually within twenty-four hours. Our appreciation is extended to Bro. Bill Vance who has volunteered countless hours as the system operator. There are many Masonic related subject files including graphics, database information, itineraries of the Grand Master and Grand First Principal, lists of Grand Lodge Officers, a section on the Philalathes publications, a CD ROM library, as well as the ability to leave messages (E-Mail) for others to access, along with many other functions. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 135 Last year at this time we reported there were fifty-one individuals who had used the system. This year we would like to acknowledge over one thousand Masons who have signed on to the bulletin board. The latest endeavour of this committee is the production of a video that will explain and encourage the use of computers and the database programme. Most Worshipful Sir, with your support and permission, I would like to congratulate the members of this committee for their diligence and dedication — R. W. Bro. Dave Wood, Vice Chairman, who has made the facilities of CKCO-TV (Kitchener) available to create our video, R.W. Bro. Brian Bond, Secretary and responsible for the creation and maintenance of our membership programme, and to V.W. Bro. Peter Scott and W. Bro. 'Skip' Grant who have been supportive with wise consul and research. I would also like to make a special mention of the district representatives and offer our thanks for your continued assistance. All of which is respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the committee. NORMAN G. MCCARTHY Chairman REPORT OF THE LONG RANGE PLANNING COMMITTEE This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. D. R. Thornton, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Thornton, it was received. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: I am privileged to present the report of the Long Range Planning Committee on behalf of its members: R.W. Bros. Mike Fulmer (Secy), Andrew Burgess, Dr. Wm. Burgman, Ian Clunie, James Hughes, Rev. Douglas Mitchell, Donald Moore, David Patterson, Klaas Schoenmaker, Ronald Watson and the undersigned as chairman. The following items, related to the future of the Craft, are presented for consideration by Grand Lodge. Support to Lodges and Districts: Information was sent to all D.D.G.M.s early in their term of office. Members accepted invitations to make presentations in a number of districts, including Algoma and Western, at a Long Range Planning meeting in Atikokan. Every effort must be made to place planning material into the hands of every Warden and Master. This committee recommends that a Planning Guide, such 136 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION as "Towards the Square" by M.W. Bro. Bradley, be issued to assist in planning and conducting stimulating lodge programmes. The "Masonic Leader's Planning Guide" prepared by the Masonic Renewal Committee of North America is another excellent example to be considered. Lodge and District Management: The decline in membership and related financial concerns are forcing a re -evaluation of the nature and practice of the Craft to an extent never before experienced this century. Throughout North America these conditions, coupled with changing social attitudes, are prompting jurisdictions to take actions which seem, in some cases, to fundamentally change the nature of the Order. Planning for the future must ensure that changes to the requirements and practices of the Order do not jeopardize the landmarks of Freemasonry. The exchange of the Mason's grip will continue to be of value so long as it ensures that both parties have confidence that each has served a realistic Masonic apprenticeship, has demonstrated proficiency in the work through an active participation in the degrees and has been taught the tenets and principles of the Order. Programmes to stabilize and rebuild Masonic membership are frequently motivated by financial requirements to maintain lodge buildings or to support obligations of related Masonic organizations. It is noted that many lodge halls are now unsuitable for the needs of the present or projected membership. Members of this committee recently attended lodges in Europe where lodges had as few as twenty-five members. We experienced the familiar and unique feeling of Masonic Brotherhood. We noted that the commitment and standards demanded of our European brothers often exceeded that which is required in our own jurisdiction. This committee recommends that Grand Lodge develop programmes and policies to assist Craft lodges to survive and function with the reduced membership being forecast. We suggest that a review of the European style of Freemasonry may point out ways to practice Freemasonry in this new environment of smaller lodges. Widening Our Horizons: A recent survey sponsored by the Imperial Council of the Shrine, "Men's Leisure Time," states that a significant percentage of men are interested in participating in organizations which allow them to become better educated, strive for self improvement, take part in charitable activities and experience fellowship with other like minded men. Our Order provides these opportunities. Once a man is initiated, it is vital that he be given every opportunity to participate fully in such activities. In the absence of regular degree work Masters experience difficulty presenting stimulating programmes. Of greater concern - the lack of regular degree work hinders the teaching of the Masonic philosophy and reduces the opportunity for members to actively participate in regular lodge work. To increase the involvement of members and to provide the opportunity for self improvement, the committee recommends that Grand Lodge prepare a package of short discussion papers on various Masonic and philosophical topics. These seminars TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 137 could be an extension of the Mentor's Programme or selected topics from the College of Freemasonry, designed to supplement the ritual, initiate discussion and encourage participation at regular lodge meetings. It is suggested that detailed outlines of such a programme be supplied to each lodge with the request, similar to the directions regarding Friend to Friend, that one or two papers be presented each year to help members make a "daily advancement in Freemasonry." Public Relations: From time to time our Order is subject to misrepresentation. In today's open society our traditional policy of remaining silent does not always serve us well. In the ongoing effort to protect the image of Freemasonry it is suggested that Grand Lodge distribute a brief position statement to ALL members to guide them in knowing when and how to make reasonable and factual responses. Selection and Election of Grand Lodge Officers: This committee recommends a review of the present process of selecting and electing Grand Lodge officers. It is suggested: a. That ways be developed to extend voting privileges to all qualified members throughout the jurisdiction and not just to those who are able to attend in Toronto. b. That the list of candidates, including background information, be published in the spring issue of the "Ontario Mason" to enable all members to make knowledgeable choices. c. That D.D.G.M.s be elected in Toronto, one year in advance, and that they be required to participate in training seminars and submit a detailed outline of their trestleboard to their district and to the Grand Master before their confirmation by the Grand Master the following July. Conclusion: History serves as a guide for the future. In bygone years our brethren, often few in number, met in small unpretentious facilities. The principles of Freemasonry and the unique bonds of brotherhood made Freemasonry special and attracted new members. As we struggle to adjust to present conditions, it is suggested that it is not numbers, nor impressive buildings which will ensure the future of the Order. It is the character of our members and the high principles promoted within our lodges that make a man proud to be a Freemason. As we plan for the future may we remember the words of Bro. The Honourable John R. Matheson in his address to Grand Lodge in 1987 when he challenged us with the following thought - "Does this Masonic generation, our Masonic Generation, have anything really worthwhile to declare? Or, is it content to live off the nourishment of the past? ... If we worship the words, the mere ritual, the meaning escapes us and we relegate Freemasonry to the cultural archives or museum. Only by constantly rewriting these ancient truths into relevant contemporary form do we keep them dynamic." Respectfully and fraternally submitted on behalf of the committee. D. R. THORNTON Chairman 138 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON LODGE BUILDINGS This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. Ralph Green, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Green, it was received.

RALPH GREEN Chairman TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 139 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE GRAND MASTER'S ADDRESS This Report was presented by M.W. Bro. N. E. Byrne, seconded by M.W. Bro. E. W. Nancekivell, and adopted. To the Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge, A.F. & AM. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. My brethren: It is with pleasure and honour that I present to you the report of the Committee on the Grand Master's Address, that committee being composed of all Past Grand Masters. The Grand Master opens his address by extending a warm welcome to all members to this 140th Annual Communication of this Grand Lodge and extends special thanks to our invited guests for their presence among us. He records his hope that they will enjoy their visit to our Grand Lodge in a similar fashion that he and his wife, Ellen- Orr, have enjoyed their visits to the Grand Lodges of many of our distinguished guests. The Grand Master, in a most fitting manner, records the deaths of many Masons of this jurisdiction who have been called to higher duties and particularly mentions a well-loved brother, R.W. Bro. Edward J. Langley, P.D.D.G.M., at one time a member of the Board of General Purposes of Grand Lodge. Bro. Langley was a very popular and well-loved brother, particularly in the Toronto area and was known as one of "the founding fathers" of the Eat & Argue Club, an organization which gives much happi- ness on a regular weekly basis to many Toronto brethren at lunchtime in a special setting of fun and fellowship. He also notes the passing of R.W. Bro. Douglas H. Bliss, P.G.S.W. (Hon.) who served our Grand Lodge office for many years as Chief Clerk. Your committee concurs on our Grand Master's recommendation that the rank of Past Grand Senior Warden be awarded to Bros. Mellor and Wilson, two stalwarts who have served Grand Lodge for many years and have gone "the second mile." The Past Grand Masters of this Grand Jurisdiction accept with thanks the words of appreciation to the P.G.M.s who have had the pleasure of working with this very dedicated Grand Master and this committee seconds the thanks and congratulations extended to the Custodian of the Work, M.W. Bro. N. R. Richards as he winds down his term in that office. The Grand Master takes the opportunity to recognize his lodge and special members of his immediate family in the persons of his dad, Bro. Charles Drew and his wife, Ellen-Orr, both of whom we are sure are as proud of him as he is thankful to them. His thanks are also extended to the hard-working members of the Board of General Purposes of Grand Lodge and particularly those who are members of the Management Committee. Your committee concurs with the Grand Master as he 140 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION thanks those members of the Board who have chosen to retire from the Board of General Purposes this year, all to seek labour in other areas of their lives. Your committee approves of his appointment of V.W. Bro. James Currie as a Grand Steward and in the recommendation for the reappointment of those honourary members of the Board of General Purposes named in his address. It is with pleasure we note his recognition of a great humanitarian service provided by The Masonic Foundation of Ontario and the establishment of its office in the Grand Lodge Memorial Building. Your committee hastens to add its own congratulations to the following recipients this year of the William Mercer Wilson Award, the "Victoria Cross" of this jurisdiction. May the following brethren, holders of that prestigious award, be spared for many years to allow them to continue to make their unique contributions to Masonry in our jurisdiction: Bro. Alec R. Rae, Antiquity Lodge No. 571, Toronto Bro. Ralph S. Henderson, Maitland Lodge No. 33, Goderich Bro. Lyndon Jones, Ancient St. John's No. 3, Kingston Bro. Donald N. Irvine, St. John's Lodge No. 104, Norwich Bro. Russell O. Dillabough, Atomic Lodge No. 686, Deep River We agree with the Grand Master's recognition and expressed thanks to those of our jurisdiction who received long service pins, the Grand Lodge Officers who served our Grand Lodge so well with zeal and devotion and we concur in his special thanks tendered to the Deputy Grand Master, R.W. Bro. Durward Greenwood with whom, once more, as Grand Master, he has continued to have a very close and continuing personal relationship, which will make the transition from one leader to another so much smoother. Your committee concurs with the Grand Master's acceptance of the Grand Rep- resentatives of other Grand Jurisdictions near our Grand Lodge and his recommen- dations of several of our distinguished brethren to serve this Grand Jurisdiction as Grand Representatives near other Grand Lodges and agree completely with those commendations for outstanding service awarded by the Grand Master to fourteen of our brethren who have toiled tirelessly in the quarries of Masonry without hope of reward. Your Grand Master comments with respect to his attendance at several Masonic conferences, showing how diligent he has been in carrying out his onerous duties as our Masonic chief. We salute the Deputy Grand Master on his election as President of the 1996 Conference of Canadian Grand and District Grand Lodges and know that he will bring honour to this Grand Lodge. We, too, congratulate our hard-working Grand Secretary, M.W. Bro. Robert E. Davies on his unique accomplishment, having been elected as President of the Con- TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 141 ference of Grand Secretaries of North America. We also wish him well as he sets about this challenging position. We note with interest the Grand Master's recommendation that some special mark of recognition be given for Lodge Secretaries who have served as such for a period of at least seven years. Your committee is, indeed, pleased to note the thanks extended to the Grand Chapter R.A.M. on the courtesies extended by that body to our Deputy Grand Master who represented our Grand Master at their Annual Communication and the Grand Master's favourable comments with respect to the close association between Grand Lodge and the Supreme Council of the Scottish Rite and of their use for membership development of the special video, "Friend to Friend." We also concur with the Grand Master's remarks with respect to the Shrine of Ontario, and the efforts of the Imperial Potentate, Burton E. Ravellette to fortify the preservation of the continuing relationship between the Shrine, the York Rite and the Scottish Rite as evidenced by our Grand Master's endorsation of the Ontario Masonic Strategy Committee's efforts to address universal concern regarding membership. Your committee notes and agrees with the Grand Master's thanks extended to the Masonic Foundation of Ontario for their assistance and co-operation as a duly incor- porated Masonic body to act as a trustee for all Masonic bodies in Canada with respect to the preservation and protection of the symbol of the square and compasses under Canadian Law. We share in his thanks extended to those Grand Lodges who contri- buted financially to this effort. As the chief head and ruler of the Craft, our Grand Master conducted two cere- monies of building dedications in Ontario during the last year. It is, indeed, encour- aging that even in these difficult times and when general membership would seem to be declining, there are those Masons whose trust in the future of Freemasonry has lead them to acquire and build new premises for the use of Masons yet to come. We con- gratulate our Grand Master as he lead the dedication ceremonies and those brethren who had the courage and foresight to provide the buildings to be so dedicated. An indication of the age of this Grand Lodge is seen by the acknowledgement by the Grand Master of two lodges in this jurisdiction who celebrated 200 years of continuous service to the Craft and five lodges who will "take the gold" of 100 years of Freemasonry in the coming years. Congratulations to those lodges on their collective tenacity. Evidence of changing times and lifestyles for some Masons can be seen in the Grand Master's reference to Daylight Lodges now holding forth in Ontario. We add our congratulations to the brethren of the London area in building a special nonprofit residence with a Masonic flare, and in providing an opportunity to lay a cornerstone with due Masonic ceremony. 142 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION It is apparent from the reading of the Grand Master's Address that Masonry in Ontario is alive and well, as evidenced by the several special programmes designed to raise funds to provide funding for special Masonic programmes, not the least of which is the "Friend to Friend" video and membership development programme, the publication and direct distribution to every Mason in Ontario of the new Ontario Mason magazine, the regional workshops, the information booth, the long-awaited establishment in new quarters of the Grand Lodge library and the Grand Lodge museum, and your committee congratulates our Grand Master on his leadership given unstintedly to these and other Masonic programmes in Ontario. Our Grand Master recognizes and extends the thanks of this Grand Lodge to those who made special donations to Grand Lodge in the form of an electronic organ and a large exhibit tent — a noble lesson in generosity. We also thank these caring individuals. The members of your committee have all enjoyed the 1995 Masonic calendar and extend our thanks, along with the Grand Master's, to those who lead in the production of this fine Masonic endeavour. The Grand Master has recognized the extensive work done by many Masons and by Masonic lodges in the communities of our great province, thereby demonstrating to the world at large that Masons care. We are told that there are two aspects of Freemasonry, namely moral instruction and social intercourse. Your committee is encouraged by the Grand Master's recog- nition of the many lodges who have done much to improve the social side of our beloved Craft in the banquet room, by special programmes and innovative efforts. Our Grand Master, true to his obligation, emphasizes the continuing good use of the "Friend to Friend" programme and encourages its continued use as a vehicle to encourage our non-Masonic friends and neighbours to seek "the light of Masonry." This programme, in the opinion of this committee, is well worthwhile and we also recom- mend it to every lodge and to every Mason in Ontario as a noble means of spreading "the good word" of Masonry. Your Grand Master directs the adherence to the INSTALLATION CEREMONY and while the minor changes may, to some, create a problem, we agree with the Grand Master that its use must be encouraged and adhered to. Your Grand Master has given evidence of his great patriotism in his reference to the Canadian flag and we commend him for it. The Grand Master directs the use of the standard application form for membership by all lodges and your committee agrees wholeheartedly. With the increase in the social side of Masonry, your committee completely concurs with the direction issued by the Grand Master with respect to the use of alcoholic TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 143 beverages at Masonic functions. Strict attention and adherence to the several stipu- lations are mandatory and make good common sense. Your committee notes, with interest, the references in the Grand Master's Address to education, the Maple Leaf Masonic pin, the library (in its new quarters), the new Masonic museum, the work of the Grand Lodge Holding Company, lodge and district newsletters, the Ontario Mason, Masonic publications (some in larger type), the Mentor's programme, regional workshops, and recognition and support of youth groups, and this committee compliments him on bringing these matters to the attention of the Craft as part of his Address and we commend him accordingly. In conclusion, your committee accepts all recommendations, awards and appoint- ments made by the Grand Master in the course of his duties this past year. Your committee goes on record as stating without reservation that our Grand Master, M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew, has lead our Craft during his two-year term as Grand Master with commitment, devotion, energy and wisdom and has made a mark in this Grand Jurisdiction that will stand forth for many years as evidence of his ideals, his love for Masonry and of his fellow man. Our Grand Master has been a beacon light for all to see, an example of QUALITY MASONRY, a living example of Brotherly Love, Relief and Truth. As M.W. Bro. C. Edwin Drew ends his term as Grand Master your committee extends to him on behalf of all Masons in Ontario a sincere expression of thanks and gratitude and of honour for an excellent job skilfully done. He is, indeed, a Master Builder. Respectfully and fraternally submitted. NORMAN E. BYRNE, P.G.M. Chairman CALLED OFF Grand Lodge adjourned at 2:40 p.m. CALLED ON Grand Lodge resumed labour at 8:45 a.m. on Thursday, July 20, 1995. 144 GRAND LODGE OF CANADA ANNUAL COMMUNICATION REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON CREDENTIALS This Report was presented by R. W. Bro. Kenneth Schweitzer, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro. Schweitzer, it was adopted. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Your Committee on Credentials begs to report: There are on the Register of Grand Lodge Warranted Lodges represented at this Communication: By Regular Officers 462 By Proxies 119 By Past Masters 33 TOTAL LODGES REPRESENTED 614 TOTAL NUMBER OF DELEGATES REGISTERED 3,335 WITH A TOTAL VOTE OF 4,266 All of which is fraternally submitted. KENNETH SCHWEITZER Chairman REPORT OF THE AWARDS COMMITTEE (WILLIAM MERCER WILSON MEDAL) This Report was presented by M.W. Bro. H. O. Polk, Chairman. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Recipients of the five William Mercer Wilson awards named in the Grand Master's Address for the year 1994—1995 now in review are to be congratulated, praised and commended for having lived up to the principles that eminently qualified them for such an honour. Details of submissions in support of the petitions impart a wide variety of service to Freemasonry as well as community activities, revealing men with gifts of insight, articulation and caring in support of worthy causes. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 145 The William Mercer Wilson Medal is recognition of merit, not an award for the elite, limited as it is by regulation granted to members who have not, nor likely to serve as Worshipful Master. It neither provides special privileges nor monetary reward, but rather recognition for outstanding contributions beyond the call of duty at the lodge, district(s), Grand Lodge and community level, embracing a wide spectrum of accom- plishment. Leadership as men of such stature personify what our fraternity proffers and pro- claims, namely to perpetuate what members advocate — compassion for the afflicted, the confined and those in need of relief from the melancholy of loneliness. As each submission is documented on the qualifications of the proposed nominee, lodge officers are reminded there is no special form available from Grand Lodge on which to apply. For the continued valued assistance of the Grand Secretary and his staff in response to every call, the committee expresses appreciation and thanks. Fraternally submitted. J. A. Irvine N. R. Richards H. O. POLK, Chairman REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE OF SCRUTINEERS This Report was presented by R.W. Bro. J. I. Carrick, Chairman, and on motion of the Deputy Grand Master, seconded by R.W. Bro.

Bro. J. I. Carrick, Chairman of the Committee of Scrutineers, and R.W. Bro. K. Schweitzer, Chairman of the Committee on Credentials, and their committee personnel for their devotion to their work. REPORT OF THE COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE The following report was approved by the Board of General Purposes for presentation to Grand Lodge; however, due to the unavoidable absence due to illness of the chairman, R.W. Bro. C. J. Woodburn, it was not presented to Grand Lodge. To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master, Officers and Members of the Grand Lodge A.F. & A.M. of Canada in the Province of Ontario. Most Worshipful Sir and Brethren: Our committee is very pleased to report on our activities and actions during this past year. Community Entrance Signs and Lodge Building Signs After considerable research and investigation by V.W. Bro. Jeff Brown and R.W. Bro. Alan Cochrane, a full review report was presented to the Management Committee at their March meeting. In summary, it was found that improvements in size and material should be made to the community entrance signs. It was also determined that electrically illuminated building signs, on a custom order basis, had become quite expensive. Your committee was requested to develop full specifications for field use. This was submitted to our Grand Lodge office this May. The intent, we understand, is to provide these standards to districts, lodges and temple corporations for their local purchase use. TORONTO, ONTARIO, 1995 147 Note Cards A full programme has been developed by our committee for this project. The intent of this is to provide "Masonic theme" note card packs for lodge sale at a profit to the lodges. Masonic artists were identified, contacted and subject arrangements made this spring. It is proposed to display these subjects and this whole project in July during our Annual Proceedings. We express a special thanks to R.W. Bro. Bert Barker for his work in this project development.
